A study on giant cell arteritis for precision medicine
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This trial looks at giant cell arteritis (GCA) and polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) to find more personalized treatments. If you have been diagnosed with either condition, you may be able to help researchers understand these diseases better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have been diagnosed with giant cell arteritis (GCA) or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR).
- You are able to give your own consent to participate.

This study is looking for biomarkers (biological clues) in people with newly diagnosed or flaring giant cell arteritis (GCA) or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR). Participating may help researchers find better ways to diagnose and monitor these conditions.
This trial looks at how the bacteria in your gut might affect giant cell arteritis, a condition that causes inflammation in blood vessels. It aims to help doctors better understand the disease.
This study looks at immune system and genetic (inherited) differences in people diagnosed with giant cell arteritis or polymyalgia rheumatica. It aims to improve understanding of why these conditions happen and how they vary between people.
This study builds and uses a Danish database for people diagnosed with giant cell arteritis (GCA) or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR). It may help doctors learn more about these conditions over time and improve care.
This trial tests how well a special MRI (picture scan) can evaluate giant cell arteritis when it’s newly suspected and symptoms started recently. It may help doctors confirm the diagnosis and decide on treatment sooner by comparing MRI findings with standard testing like biopsy or ultrasound.
This study checks whether different MRI scanning details can better help doctors diagnose giant cell arteritis. If you’re being sent for an injected MRI because GCA is suspected, your scan results may help improve how future diagnoses are made.
