Telitacicept for early diffuse scleroderma
Treatments studied
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a new drug called telitacicept for people with recently diagnosed, rapidly progressing systemic sclerosis (scleroderma). It aims to see if the drug can slow down skin thickening and other symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 70 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with diffuse systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) by a doctor using official criteria.
- Your first non-Raynaud's symptom (like skin thickening or joint pain) started no more than 18 months ago.
- Your skin tightness score (mRSS) is at least 10 at the screening visit.
- You have not taken rituximab, belimumab, or other B-cell therapies before.

This trial tests an investigational drug called MTX-474 for people with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (a type of scleroderma that affects the skin and internal organs). The study aims to see if it can help slow or improve skin thickening and other symptoms.
This study tests whether blocking a protein called TL1A can help reduce skin thickening and improve the immune system in people with systemic sclerosis (a condition where skin becomes hard and thick). Researchers will compare skin and blood samples from people with systemic sclerosis to healthy volunteers.
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell therapy called relmacabtagene autoleucel for people with diffuse systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) that is not responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this therapy can help control the disease.
This trial tests a medicine called Telitacicept to see if it can prevent lupus flares in people whose disease is currently mild or stable. It may be a good option if you want to keep your lupus under control and avoid sudden worsening.
This trial tests a new medicine called telitacicept for people with connective tissue disease (like lupus or Sjögren's) whose platelet counts stay dangerously low despite standard treatments. It aims to raise platelet levels and reduce bleeding risk.
This trial tests telitacicept to improve lupus nephritis (inflammation of the kidneys caused by lupus). It targets people with active kidney disease confirmed by biopsy and compares outcomes while you receive standard steroid plus mycophenolate treatment.
