25 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The main purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the efficacy of efgartigimod PH20 SC in patients with moderate-to-severe Primary Sjögren's Disease (pSjD). The study consists of a double-blinded placebo-controlled treatment period and an open-label treatment period. The maximum study duration for participants in both study parts is approximately 105 weeks.
Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is a condition when the body's immune system attacks glands that produce fluids, such as the tear and saliva glands. This leads to dry eyes and a dry mouth. However, other symptoms may occur such as fatigue, joint pain, and skin problems. These symptoms can be severe. Symptoms can be treated but there is an unmet need to treat the actual condition. In this study, ASP5502 is being given to humans for the first time. The people taking part are healthy adults or adults with pSS. The main aims of the study are to check the safety of ASP5502 and how people tolerate ASP5502. This study will be in 3 parts. In Part 1, healthy men and women will take tablets of ASP5502 or a placebo just once. In this study, the placebo looks like the ASP5502 tablet but doesn't have any medicine in it. Different small groups of people will take a lower to a higher dose of ASP5502 or a placebo. This will happen one group after another. One small group will take tablets of ASP5502 or placebo with and without food. This is to find out if food affects how the body processes ASP5502. After their dose, people will stay in the medical center for a few nights. This is to have blood tests, electrocardiograms (ECGs) to check heart health, and other safety checks, and to report any medical problems. One of these checks is to have their heart continuously tracked during the first night. This is called telemetry. People who take tablets of ASP5502 or placebo with and without food will stay in the medical center for a few extra nights. In Part 2, healthy men and women will take tablets of ASP5502 or a placebo. They will do this once a day for 2 weeks (14 days). Different small groups of people will take a lower to a higher dose of ASP5502 or a placebo. This will happen one group after another. After taking ASP5502 or the placebo, people will stay in the medical center for a few nights. This is to have blood tests, ECGs to check heart health, and other safety checks, and to report any medical problems. Telemetry will also be done continuously during the first night. In Part 3, men and women with pSS will take tablets of ASP5502. They will do this once a day for 4 weeks (28 days). Different small groups of people will take a lower to a higher dose of ASP5502. This will either happen for one group after another, or just for 1 group. The number of groups and the doses taken will be worked out from the results from Part 1 and Part 2 of this study. People will stay in the medical center for a couple of nights. This will happen for their first dose, then again after about 2 weeks and 4 weeks of treatment. As in Parts 1 and 2, this is to have blood tests, ECGs to check heart health, and other safety checks, and to report any medical problems. In all parts of the study, people will return to the medical center about 1 week after their final blood sample is taken, for health check. People in parts 2 and 3 will also receive a telephone call safety check about 4 weeks after their last dose of ASP5502.

Background: Sjögren's syndrome is an autoimmune disease (where the immune system attacks normal body tissues) that affects the salivary glands. Many people with Sjögren's syndrome are not able to make enough saliva because their salivary glands are inflamed. The dry mouth that results can interfere with daily activities and can lead to dental cavities, mouth sores, and infections. Injections of corticosteroids into the parotid glands can improve saliva production in people with Sjögren's syndrome, but current treatment practices may provide only temporary relief. Researchers are interested in studying the effectiveness of stronger corticosteroid injections (using dexamethasone) to determine how the corticosteroid treatment actually works. Objectives: - To evaluate the effectiveness and mechanics of dexamethasone injections to improve saliva production in individuals with primary Sjögren's syndrome. Eligibility: - Women between 18 and greater of age who have been diagnosed with primary Sjögren's syndrome, and have had a biopsy of the minor salivary glands in the past 5 years that shows a moderate level of inflammation. Design: * Participants will be screened with a full medical history and physical examination, blood and urine tests, and salivary gland biopsies. Participants will also be screened with tests of saliva flow production and evaluation of the salivary ducts and glands, and will complete questionnaires about dry mouth symptoms. * At the first treatment visit, participants will receive an injection of dexamethasone into one parotid gland and an injection of saline into the other gland. After the injections, participants will provide a blood sample to test the level of dexamethasone in the blood. * Two weeks after the first treatment, participants will return for an evaluation visit to have saliva flow rate measurements taken, and will complete a questionnaire about dry mouth symptoms. * Four weeks after the first treatment, participants will have a second treatment for each parotid gland, with the same tests and questionnaires as before. * Participants will have additional evaluation visits 6 and 8 weeks after the first treatment visit, with a followup telephone call approximately 6 weeks after the last dexamethasone treatment visit.
The goal of this clinical study is to learn if RSLV-132 improves the symptoms of SS in adults. It will also learn about the safety of RSLV-132. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does RSLV-132 improve the cardinal symptoms of Sjogren's including fatigue, dryness and pain? * Does RSLV-132 improve the tiredness/fatigue caused by Sjogren's? * What are the blood levels of RSLV-132 over time? * What is the immune (antibody) response in the body to RSLV-132? * What is the safety profile of RSLV-132? Researchers will compare RSLV-132 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if RSLV-132 improves the symptoms of pSS. Participants will: Take RSLV-132 or a placebo 13 times over 22 weeks Visit the clinic once every week for the first 2 weeks, then every 2 weeks until the end of treatment and then for a final time 4 weeks later (Day 211) for check-ups, tests and to answer questionnaires about their symptoms Record their symptoms every day on an electronic device
The primary purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Abatacept in subjects with Sjogren's Syndrome (SS). This clinical trial study will enroll and treat 15 subjects with active moderate and severe inflammatory arthritis associated with primary Sjogren's syndrome (pSS) and secondary Sjogren's sybdrine (sSS) with Rheumatoid Arthrits (RA). All subjects will receive Abatacept weekly by Subcutaneous (SC) dosing. Subjects will receive Abatacept by SC injection of 125 mg on day 1 and followed by 125 mg SC weekly thereafter.
The purpose of the study is to find out if the experimental study agent, baminercept, is effective in treating patients with Sjögren's syndrome. The study will also determine if the study agent can be safely given to patients with Sjögren's syndrome; examine how it affects symptoms of the disease; and attempt to understand how baminercept affects the underlying mechanisms of Sjögren's syndrome and the immune system.
Lung involvement in Sjögren's syndrome is common and causes reduced quality of life and increased mortality. Sjögren's syndrome-related lung diseases (SS-RLD) are classified and treated as the primary lung diseases they resemble. Whether this approach is optimal has not been evaluated thoroughly. A critical gap in knowledge is knowing whether SS-RLDs have a unique clinical course and response to therapy. Given the underlying immune system dysfunction in Sjögren's syndrome, the investigators hypothesize that patients with SS-RLD will be more likely to respond to immunosuppressive therapy than patients with the matching primary lung disease. To address this hypothesis, the investigators will prospectively screen for Sjogren's syndrome in patients presenting to pulmonary clinics and compare the clinical course and response to therapy in Sjogren's syndrome positive and negative patients.
