Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults 18-65 with moderate to severe refractory autoimmune disease, such as SLE meeting 2019 EULAR/ACR criteria with SLEDAI-2000 ≥6 (or ≥8) or antibody-positive idiopathic inflammatory myopathy that is recurrent, refractory, or progressive and who have failed standard therapies.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with mild disease, autoimmune conditions not specified in the trial criteria, children, adults over 65, or those with contraindications to the investigational injection are unlikely to benefit from participation.

What this trial studies
This is a prospective, single-arm, open-label early phase 1 trial with dose-escalation and expansion cohorts enrolling 30 participants. Adult patients with moderate to severe refractory autoimmune disease — including specified systemic lupus erythematosus and antibody-positive idiopathic inflammatory myopathy cases — will receive GT719 injections and be monitored for safety, clinical response, and cellular pharmacokinetics. The trial will collect clinical disease activity measures and laboratory data over defined follow-up visits to characterize tolerability and early signs of efficacy. Results will inform dosing and feasibility for later-stage studies.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, GT719 could reduce disease activity and provide a new treatment option for adults with refractory autoimmune disease.
How similar studies have gone: Some targeted biologic and cell-directed therapies have shown benefit in refractory autoimmune diseases, but GT719 appears to be a novel agent with very limited prior human data.

Participants with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) 1. Complies with the 2017 EULAR/ACR classification criteria for inflammatory myopathy (including DM, PM, ASS, and NM) 2. Myositis antibody positive; 3. . Meets the definition of recurrence, refractory or progressive; * 5\. Participants with systemic sclerosis 1. . Meet the 2013 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) SSc criteria; 2. . SSc related antibodies are positive; 3. . Meets the definition of refractory or progressive recurrence Exclusion Criteria: * 1\. Within 3 weeks prior to lymphodepleting chemotherapy, complement inhibition therapy (such as Ecuzumab) has been used; * 2\. Received attenuated live vaccine within 4 weeks before lymphodepleting chemotherapy; * 3\.
