• Early detection of progressive lung fibrosis in connective tissue diseases

  This project will test whether blood extracellular vesicle biomarkers combined with AI-analyzed HRCT scans can detect and predict progressive interstitial lung disease in adults with connective tissue diseases.

  Recruiting Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS · Roma · NCT07541638

• Using capillaroscopy to help diagnose diffuse interstitial pneumonias

  We will test whether adding nailfold capillaroscopy to standard care helps doctors diagnose connective-tissue–related interstitial lung disease faster in adults newly diagnosed with pulmonary interstitial disease.

  Recruiting University Hospital, Bordeaux · Bordeaux · NCT07283081

• Home monitoring for lung disease in patients with rheumatic diseases

  This study is testing if regular home monitoring can help people with lung disease related to rheumatic diseases manage their condition better than just going to the hospital for check-ups.

  Recruiting Oslo University Hospital · Oslo · NCT06732674

• Investigating the long-term effects of Belimumab in adults with lung disease related to systemic sclerosis

  This study is testing if the medication Belimumab can help adults with lung disease related to systemic sclerosis feel better and slow down their disease over the long term.

  Recruiting at 41 sites Phase 3 GlaxoSmithKline · Los Angeles, California and 40 other locations · NCT06716606

• Understanding genetic and environmental factors in pulmonary fibrosis

  This study looks at how genes and environmental factors affect pulmonary fibrosis to help understand the disease better for people who have it.

  Recruiting Royal College of Surgeons, Ireland · Dublin · NCT06702228

• Using stem cells to treat lung disease in patients with connective tissue disorders

  This study is testing if a new treatment using stem cells can help improve lung function in patients with lung disease caused by connective tissue disorders.

  Recruiting Phase 1/2 China Medical University Hospital · Taichung · NCT06574581

• Genetics Navigator: a digital platform to guide people through genetic testing

  This randomized trial will test whether the Genetics Navigator digital platform helps adults and parents of children referred for clinical genetic testing have less distress and a smoother testing process compared with usual genetics appointments.

  Recruiting at 3 sites Unity Health Toronto · Toronto, Ontario and 2 other locations · NCT06455384

• Using 129Xe MRI to Diagnose and Monitor Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

  This study is testing if a special type of MRI can help doctors spot different types of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and track how the disease changes over time in people with this condition.

  Recruiting Phase 2 Duke University · Durham, North Carolina · NCT06104228

• Treatment of thrombocytopenia in connective tissue diseases with Telitacicept

  This study is testing if a new treatment called Telitacicept can help people with low platelet counts caused by connective tissue diseases feel better.

  Recruiting at 23 sites Phase 2 Beijing Hospital · Hefei, Anhui and 22 other locations · NCT05998759

• Registry of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Linked to Connective Tissue Diseases

  This study is collecting information from patients with pulmonary hypertension linked to connective tissue diseases to see how the condition progresses and improve treatment over five years.

  Recruiting Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Medicas y Nutricion Salvador Zubiran · Mexico City · NCT05665556

• Treatment options for Dupuytren's contracture

  This study is testing whether adding a corticosteroid injection to a needle treatment helps people with Dupuytren's contracture move their fingers better.

  Recruiting Phase 4 Regionshospitalet Silkeborg · Silkeborg · NCT05440240

• Using avatrombopag to treat adult immune thrombocytopenia with autoantibodies

  This study is testing if avatrombopag can help adults with immune thrombocytopenia who have autoantibodies and haven't had success with other treatments.

  Recruiting Phase 2 Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, China · Tianjin, Tianjin Municipality · NCT04993885
