Study of adults with myositis and heart injury
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at adults with myositis (muscle inflammation) who also have heart problems, to learn more about the condition and how to treat it. It may help doctors better understand and care for people with this combination of issues.

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.
This study follows people with inflammatory myositis over time to learn more about the condition. If you join, you may receive closer monitoring and contribute to research that could improve future treatments.
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.
This study follows adults who have (or are being evaluated for) inflammatory muscle conditions to collect health data and genetic test information. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and improve future care.
This study looks at adults who may have an autoimmune (self-immune) muscle disease. It aims to better understand and evaluate this condition, which may help guide future diagnosis and care.
This study follows people with suspected or confirmed inflammatory muscle disease (and sometimes healthy adults) to better understand how the condition progresses and what changes over time. It may help researchers identify patterns that could guide future treatments.
