What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the safety and initial efficacy of UTAA09 injection in patients suffering from relapsed or refractory autoimmune diseases. It is designed as a single-arm, open-label study where participants receive the injection and undergo various assessments, including pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity evaluations. Blood samples will be collected before and after the infusion to monitor these parameters, and therapeutic efficacy will be assessed at multiple time points over a period of up to 24 months. The study aims to provide insights into the potential benefits of this treatment for patients who have not responded to standard therapies.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include individuals with relapsed or refractory autoimmune diseases who have failed standard treatments.

Not a fit: Patients with stable autoimmune diseases or those who have not yet undergone standard treatment may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could offer a new therapeutic option for patients with difficult-to-treat autoimmune diseases.

How similar studies have performed: While there have been studies on similar approaches, the specific use of UTAA09 injection in this context is novel and has not been extensively tested.

Eligibility criteria

inclusion criteria (2) Expected survival time ≥3 months; (3) Subjects with recurrent/refractory autoimmune diseases who have failed standard treatment or lack effective treatment, Including but not limited to systemic lupus erythematosus, idiopathic inflammatory myopathy, systemic sclerosis, IGG4-associated diseases, primary Sjogren's syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease, immune thrombocytopenia, primary biliary cholangitis, etc.

(3) Histological evidence of non-suppurative destructive cholangitis and small bile duct destruction.
