Recruiting studies
- NCT05532865Recruiting
Biobank study for adults with systemic sclerosis
This study follows adults with systemic sclerosis who are being seen at a specific hospital and asks for consent to store blood and other samples for future research. It may help researchers better understand the disease and develop better tests or treatments over time.
BrestAges 18 years+ - NCT06936215RecruitingPhase 3
Baricitinib vs methotrexate for skin tightening in scleroderma
This study tests if baricitinib (a daily pill) is better than methotrexate (a common treatment) at reducing skin tightening in people with a severe type of scleroderma called diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis. It may help if your skin is getting tighter and you have been diagnosed in the last 5 years.
DhakaAges 18 years+ - NCT05108857Enrolling by invitation
PET scan study for early active systemic sclerosis
This trial uses PET/CT scans with special tracers to look at inflammation and activity in systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) soon after symptoms begin. It may help researchers understand what’s driving active disease and where it shows up in the body.
TurkuAges 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.

Cell therapy plus tafasitamab for autoimmune diseases
This trial tests a new cell therapy (AD-PluReceptor) combined with the drug tafasitamab for people with certain autoimmune diseases like systemic sclerosis, lupus, or chronic graft-versus-host disease. It aims to see if this treatment can help when standard therapies have failed.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07077304Recruiting
Cardiac imaging study for inflammatory heart diseases
This study uses heart scans (MRI or nuclear imaging) to better understand inflammatory heart conditions. If you have a suspected inflammatory heart disease and are already scheduled for one of these scans, you may be able to join.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT05007340Recruiting
ILD and autoimmune conditions registry and sample storage
This study collects health information and may store blood or other samples to learn more about interstitial lung disease (ILD) and autoimmune-related conditions. Joining could help researchers understand different causes of ILD and improve future care.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT03473912Recruiting
Rheumatoid disease biobank study for adults
This study asks adults with a rheumatoid condition to join a biobank, which is a safe place to store health information and biological samples for future research. It may help researchers better understand rheumatoid conditions and develop better treatments.
Kfar SabaAges 18–120 - NCT04627857Recruiting
Teeth cleaning tools and gum health in people with skin scleroderma
This trial tests whether using specific oral hygiene tools improves gum health in people with systemic sclerosis that affects the skin. You may be asked to change your usual cleaning routine and follow the study’s device use to see effects on your gums.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06182293Recruiting
Mouth bacteria in early systemic sclerosis
This study looks at the bacteria in the mouth (periodontal microbiota) of people with early systemic sclerosis compared to those without the condition. It may help understand if there is a link between oral health and systemic sclerosis.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT06256575Recruiting
Diosmin for healing finger ulcers in scleroderma
This study tests whether a natural supplement called diosmin can help heal finger and toe ulcers in people with scleroderma. If you have a current ulcer that is not infected, you may be able to join.

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.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 12–70 - NCT07150000Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for systemic sclerosis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 176 recruiting systemic sclerosis 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 systemic sclerosis 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 systemic sclerosis 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.
