Recruiting studies in Ohio
- NCT05352919Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Long-term study of litifilimab for lupus symptom control
This study follows people with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who already took part in an earlier, 1-year placebo-controlled trial. It looks at the long-term safety of litifilimab and whether it helps improve lupus symptoms over time.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07409181RecruitingPhase 2
Testing an experimental pill for active lupus (SLE)
This study tests an experimental daily pill (BI 3000202) for people with active lupus (SLE) to see if it can reduce disease activity. It compares different doses against a placebo, and you must already be on stable lupus background treatment.
Middleburg Heights, OhioAges 18–74 - NCT05835310RecruitingPhase 3
IV anifrolumab for active lupus in children
This study tests whether an intravenous medicine called anifrolumab can safely improve active systemic lupus (SLE) in children. If you qualify, you may receive the study treatment and be closely monitored for safety and lupus symptoms.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 5–17 - NCT07438496RecruitingPhase 3
Study of nipocalimab for moderate to severe lupus
This trial tests a new medicine, nipocalimab, for adults with moderate to severe lupus. It aims to see if the drug can help control lupus symptoms and reduce disease activity.
Middleburg Heights, OhioAges 18–75 - NCT03816345RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab for advanced cancer with autoimmune conditions
This Phase 1 study tests nivolumab, an immunotherapy “anti-cancer accelerator,” in people with advanced cancer who also have an autoimmune disorder. It aims to see if nivolumab can be given safely and whether it may help shrink or control cancer.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05934149Recruiting
Lupus health registry that stores samples for future research
This study keeps a long-term record of people with lupus (systemic lupus erythematosus) and collects samples so researchers can study the disease better. You may be able to join if you meet lupus diagnosis criteria, are not pregnant, and can follow the study visits and consent process.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–110 - NCT06232304Recruiting
Program for young people with childhood lupus
This study tests a program to help teenagers and young adults with childhood-onset lupus manage symptoms like fatigue, sadness, or pain. It aims to improve daily life and well-being.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 12–22 - 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.
Cleveland, OhioAges 12–70 - NCT06340750RecruitingPhase 1
BAFF CAR-T cells for lupus that hasn't improved with standard treatments
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy called BAFF CAR-T cells (LMY-920) for lupus that hasn't gotten better with standard treatments. It aims to see if these special immune cells can help calm the overactive immune system in lupus.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT06576271RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for lupus and related lung disease
This study tests an experimental drug called GSK4527363. It is first being given to healthy volunteers to check safety, then to people with lupus (SLE) and people with connective tissue disease-related lung disease (CTD-ILD). The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how the body processes it.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–65 - NCT06133972RecruitingPhase 3
Long-term safety of ianalumab for lupus (extension study)
This extension study tests the long-term safety of ianalumab for people with systemic lupus erythematosus. If you completed a prior SIRIUS-SLE study and your doctor thinks you'd benefit, you may continue treatment for up to 60 more weeks.
Middleburg Heights, OhioAges 12–100 - NCT06570798RecruitingPhase 2
Testing Two Drugs for Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis
This trial tests two study drugs, inebilizumab and blinatumomab, for people with lupus (SLE) or rheumatoid arthritis (RA) that hasn't gotten better with standard treatments. It focuses on those with active disease, especially lupus-related kidney problems.

What taking part in a systemic lupus erythematosus 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.
