Study of second-line treatment for thyroid eye disease
Part of Eyes & vision, Hormones & metabolism, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial looks at how thyroid eye disease (inflammation behind the eyes) changes over time in people who need stronger treatments after steroids haven't worked well enough. It aims to better understand the disease and how different second-line treatments may help.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older with moderate to severe thyroid eye disease.
- Your thyroid hormone levels are being managed by an endocrinologist to be stable.
- You have tried at least 3 weeks of high-dose steroids but your eye symptoms did not improve enough.
- Your eye symptoms got worse (score of 3 or more) when reducing or stopping steroids.
- You are about to start or have started immunotherapy, biotherapy, or radiation therapy as a second treatment.

This study aims to build a model that helps doctors predict how thyroid eye disease (TAO) will progress, specifically for patients with moderate to severe symptoms. If you have had TAO and meet the activity criteria, your participation could lead to better personalized care.
This trial tests a new sequence of hormone therapy followed by a targeted drug (tetuzumab) for people with moderate to severe thyroid eye disease that is still active after steroid treatment didn't help enough.
This trial tests two different ways of giving a steroid medicine (methylprednisolone) through an IV to treat active Graves' eye disease. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safer for people with moderate to severe symptoms.
This trial tests a new medicine called MHB018A for people with active, moderate to severe thyroid eye disease. It aims to see if the drug can reduce eye symptoms like bulging and inflammation.
This trial tests a two-step treatment for active, moderate-to-severe thyroid eye disease (TAO). You will first receive hormone therapy, followed by a drug called IBI311. The goal is to see if this sequence works better for people who have not had steroid treatment before.
This Phase 2 study compares sirolimus versus corticosteroids to treat active thyroid eye disease. It aims to see which treatment works better to calm eye inflammation and improve symptoms, without needing urgent eye surgery.
