										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The study focuses on two rare muscle‑inflammatory conditions, <b>Dermatomyositis</b> and <b>anti‑synthetase inflammatory myositis</b>. Both diseases cause muscle weakness and skin rashes because the immune system mistakenly attacks muscle and skin tissue. Participants will receive a subcutaneous injection, which means the medicine is given just under the skin, of the experimental drug <b>daxdilimab</b>. In addition, they will continue their usual oral steroid medication, <b>prednisone</b>, which helps control inflammation.</p>
<p>The purpose of the trial is to determine whether the experimental drug can lower disease activity compared with a placebo. Adults will be randomly assigned to receive either the study drug or the placebo, and neither the participants nor the study staff will know which treatment is given. Injections will be given at regular intervals over about six months, with clinic visits to assess muscle strength, skin involvement, and any side effects. Researchers will track changes using simple scores that measure overall improvement and skin disease activity, and they will also monitor whether participants can reduce their steroid dose safely.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This study involves patients with severe immune-mediated inflammatory diseases that have not responded well to previous treatments. The specific conditions being studied are <b>primary Sjögren&#8217;s disease</b>, <b>idiopathic inflammatory myopathy</b>, <b>systemic sclerosis</b>, and <b>rheumatoid arthritis</b>. The treatment being investigated is <b>cizutamig</b>, which is a bispecific antibody that works by engaging certain immune cells in the body. This medication is given as an <b>intravenous infusion</b>, meaning it is delivered directly into a vein.</p>
<p>The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of cizutamig in patients with these severe inflammatory conditions and to examine how well the treatment works in controlling disease activity. During the study, patients will receive the medication and will be closely monitored for any side effects, particularly <b>Cytokine Release Syndrome</b> and other treatment-related reactions. The study will track various measures of disease activity specific to each condition, such as skin thickness scores for systemic sclerosis, muscle strength measurements for inflammatory myopathy, disease activity scores for rheumatoid arthritis, and symptom scores for Sjögren&#8217;s disease. For patients who have lung involvement, lung function tests will also be performed.</p>
<p>The study will last approximately 52 weeks, with regular assessments at different time points to evaluate both the safety and effectiveness of the treatment. Patients will have measurements taken at weeks 16, 24, and 52 to see how their disease responds to cizutamig. The study will also look at whether patients can reduce or stop other medications they may be taking, how often their disease flares up, and how their overall quality of life and daily functioning change during the treatment period.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This study involves patients with severe autoimmune diseases that have not responded well to previous treatments that target B cells. The specific conditions being studied are <b>systemic lupus erythematosus</b>, <b>idiopathic inflammatory myopathy</b>, <b>systemic sclerosis</b>, and <b>primary Sjögren&#8217;s syndrome</b>. Autoimmune diseases occur when the body&#8217;s immune system mistakenly attacks its own tissues, causing inflammation and damage to various organs. The treatment being tested is <b>idecabtagene vicleucel</b>, also known as <b>Abecma</b>, which is a type of cell therapy where special immune cells called T cells are modified to target a protein called <b>BCMA</b>. This treatment is given as a single <b>intravenous infusion</b>, which means it is delivered directly into a vein.</p>
<p>The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of this cell therapy in patients whose autoimmune disease has continued to progress despite receiving treatments that remove B cells from the body. B cells are a type of immune cell that produces antibodies, and in autoimmune diseases, these cells can contribute to the harmful immune response. The study will specifically look at serious side effects including problems with the immune system&#8217;s response to the treatment, such as <b>cytokine release syndrome</b> and nervous system complications, as well as damage to organs that does not improve quickly.</p>
<p>During the study, patients will receive the modified T cell treatment and will be closely monitored for any side effects and how their body responds to the therapy. The study will track whether patients experience any severe reactions and how long it takes for these reactions to resolve with appropriate medical care. Patients participating in this study will have already tried multiple standard treatments for their autoimmune disease without success, including at least one treatment specifically designed to eliminate B cells from the body.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This study focuses on several conditions involving <b>fibrosis</b>, which is the development of excess scar tissue in the body. The diseases being studied include <b>Idiopathic inflammatory myopathy</b>, <b>Crohn&#8217;s disease</b>, <b>Ulcerative colitis</b>, <b>Fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis</b>, <b>Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis</b>, <b>Unclassifiable interstitial lung disease</b>, and <b>Systemic sclerosis</b>. These conditions are often part of a group known as <b>immune-mediated inflammatory diseases</b>, where the body&#8217;s immune system causes inflammation that can lead to organ damage.</p>
<p>The purpose of the study is to evaluate the use of <b>68Ga-FAPI-46</b> to detect scar tissue inside the body. This substance is a <b>radiopharmaceutical</b>, which is a specialized drug used for medical imaging. Participants will undergo a <b>PET/CT</b> scan, a method that combines two types of imaging to create detailed pictures of the body&#8217;s internal structures. During the process, the substance is administered through an <b>intravenous</b> injection, meaning it is delivered directly into a vein.</p>
<p>Throughout the study, the imaging results will be compared with biological samples to see how well the scan identifies certain markers of scarring. Researchers will also look at how the substance moves through the body and how it can be used to better understand the progression of these diseases. This information may help in finding new ways to diagnose or treat scarring in the future.</p>
