Cell therapy for refractory autoimmune diseases
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy (SCAR02) that targets two proteins on immune cells to help calm down overactive autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Sjögren's syndrome, or systemic sclerosis. It may be an option if standard treatments haven't worked well enough.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older.
- You have a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis, lupus (SLE), Sjögren's syndrome, or systemic sclerosis.
- Your autoimmune disease is still active despite standard treatments (like steroids, methotrexate, or biologics).
- Your blood counts, liver, and kidney function are within acceptable ranges.
- You have no history of cancer, major organ transplant, or active serious infections.

This trial uses your own engineered immune cells (CAR-T cells) to treat severe autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Sjögren's syndrome, or systemic sclerosis that haven't improved with standard medicines. The goal is to see if this treatment can calm the immune system and reduce disease activity.
This study tests a new type of cell therapy (CAR T cells) that targets certain immune cells to treat autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Sjögren's syndrome, and systemic sclerosis. It may help people whose disease is not well controlled with standard treatments.
This trial tests a personalized cell therapy (CAR-T cells that target CD19 and BCMA proteins) for people with lupus, Sjogren's, scleroderma, dermatomyositis, antisynthetase syndrome, immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy, rheumatoid arthritis, or ANCA-associated vasculitis that has not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this therapy can reduce disease activity.
This trial tests a new CAR-T cell treatment for people with certain autoimmune diseases that have not responded to standard therapies. The treatment uses your own immune cells modified to target and attack disease-causing cells.
This trial tests a new type of cell therapy (CAR-T cells designed to target CD19 and BCMA) for children and teenagers with severe autoimmune diseases that have not gotten better with standard treatments. The goal is to see if this one-time infusion can help control the disease and reduce the need for long-term steroids and other drugs.
This trial tests a new treatment called CAR-T cells that target two proteins (BCMA and CD19) on immune cells. It is for people with certain autoimmune diseases that have not improved with standard treatments.
