Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- NCT06154252RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of CABA-201 for active myositis in adults and children
This trial tests a new treatment called CABA-201, which uses your own immune cells modified to attack the overactive cells causing myositis. It is for people with active disease that hasn't improved enough with standard therapies.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 6–75 - NCT05979441Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term safety of efgartigimod injection for myositis
This study tests the long-term safety and effectiveness of a subcutaneous (under-the-skin) version of efgartigimod for adults with active idiopathic inflammatory myopathy. It is for people who have already completed an earlier study of this medicine.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05895786RecruitingPhase 3
Study drug for active dermatomyositis or polymyositis
This Phase 3 trial tests how an investigational medicine (PF-06823859) works in adults with active dermatomyositis or polymyositis. It aims to improve disease control by targeting the immune system, but you must meet several safety and diagnosis requirements.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06308978RecruitingPhase 1
Study of FT819 for B-cell autoimmune diseases
This trial tests a new cell therapy, FT819, for people with certain autoimmune diseases like lupus, vasculitis, myositis, or scleroderma that haven't improved with at least two previous treatments. The goal is to see if it can help control the disease.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 12–70 - NCT01276470Recruiting
Study of environmental triggers in anti-synthetase syndrome

What taking part in a myositis study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there myositis clinical trials in Pennsylvania?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 5 recruiting myositis studies with a site in Pennsylvania, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a myositis study in Pennsylvania?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Pennsylvania to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Pennsylvania, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a myositis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
