About this study
In plain language
This early-stage study tests the safety of FT819, how it moves through the body, and how it acts on B cells, a type of immune cell. It is for people ages 12 to 70 with certain moderate-to-severe autoimmune diseases, where the immune system attacks the body. FT819 is tested with or without an added medicine.
This is a phase 1 study designed to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and anti-B-cell activity of FT819 following treatment with or without auxiliary medicinal product (AMP) in participants with moderate-to-severe active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with or without nephritis, antineutrophilic cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV), idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM), and systemic sclerosis (SSc). The study will consist of a dose-escalation stage, followed by an expansion stage to further evaluate the safety and activity of FT819.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- Be 12 to 70 years old.
- Have a confirmed, active disease involving B cells: lupus, ANCA-associated vasculitis (blood vessel swelling), idiopathic inflammatory myositis (muscle swelling), or systemic sclerosis (skin and tissue hardening). Lupus may affect the kidneys or not.
- Have moderate-to-severe disease, with at least two past treatments that did not work.
- Have organs that work well enough to handle treatment.
- Be able to agree to join, or agree with a parent's consent when needed, and follow study steps.
Who can't join
- Be pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Have serious heart, lung, liver, or kidney problems.
- Have a recent or ongoing serious infection.
- Have current or recent cancer.
- Have had CAR T-cell therapy, a treatment using changed immune cells, or an organ transplant.
- Have a known allergy to any study treatment.
- Weigh less than 50 kg (110 pounds).
