Recruiting studies
- NCT06455449RecruitingPhase 3
Injectable anifrolumab for polymyositis or dermatomyositis
This study tests a new injectable medicine (anifrolumab) added to your usual treatments for polymyositis or dermatomyositis. It may help reduce disease activity if you have moderate to severe symptoms and are already on stable therapy.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–75 - NCT07160205RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of ULSC for dermatomyositis and polymyositis
This trial tests a new treatment called ULSC to see if it can improve muscle strength and skin symptoms, and help reduce steroid use in people with dermatomyositis or polymyositis. It may be an option if standard treatments haven't worked well enough.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT01276470Recruiting
Study of environmental triggers in anti-synthetase syndrome
This study looks for environmental risk factors that may be linked to anti-synthetase syndrome, a type of inflammatory muscle disease. It compares people with the condition to carefully matched people without it, using questionnaires, blood samples, and lung imaging when needed.
Miami, FloridaAges 2–100 - 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.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04402086Recruiting
Rheumatology patient and skin sample registry study at Yale
This study builds a health record and blood/skin sample collection for people with rheumatic autoimmune diseases who are getting care at Yale. It may help researchers understand these conditions and develop better tests or treatments over time.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18–99 - 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.
Glendale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - 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.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 6–75 - NCT06347718RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Car-T cells for autoimmune disease
This study tests a type of immunotherapy called CAR-T cells for people with certain autoimmune diseases like lupus, scleroderma, or myositis. It aims to see if this treatment can help when standard medicines haven't worked well enough.
Erlangen, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06685042RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T-cell therapy for severe autoimmune diseases
This study tests a new treatment called CAR T-cell therapy for people with severe autoimmune diseases that haven't gotten better with standard treatments. The goal is to see if it can help control the disease by reprogramming your immune cells.
Rome, LazioAges 18–65 - NCT06698796RecruitingPhase 3
Study of dazukibart for ongoing idiopathic inflammatory myopathies
This trial studies the long-term effects of dazukibart in people who completed an earlier study for idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (a group of rare conditions causing muscle inflammation and weakness). It helps researchers understand how well the medicine works over a longer period.
Glendale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07374107Recruiting
Patient insights for shaping myositis research
This study asks people with autoimmune muscle diseases (myositis) and their caregivers to share their experiences and insights. By joining, you help shape better research and care for myositis.
New Orleans, LouisianaAges 7 years+ - NCT00017914Recruiting
Understanding muscle inflammation: adult and juvenile myositis study
This research study helps doctors better understand myositis—a group of rare diseases that cause muscle inflammation and weakness. Researchers collect blood samples, medical history, and sometimes muscle biopsies to learn more about what causes these conditions and how to treat them better.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 2–100

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for polymyositis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 12 recruiting polymyositis studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a polymyositis trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a polymyositis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
