RESET-Myositis: CABA-201 for Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy

This study, called RESET-Myositis, is looking at a new cell therapy called CABA-201 for people with active idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM), which includes conditions like dermatomyositis (DM), anti-synthetase syndrome (ASyS), and immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM). IIMs are rare autoimmune diseases that cause inflammation and muscle weakness. This study aims to see how safe and effective CABA-201 is when given as a single infusion after you receive other medicines called fludarabine and cyclophosphamide. To join, you must be between 18 and 75 years old with an IIM diagnosis and active disease, even if you've had other treatments. The study will measure side effects and how many people improve without needing other medications or high doses of steroids.

Study design
This is an open-label study, meaning you and your doctors will know which treatment you are receiving. It plans to enroll 74 participants.
What's involved
You would receive a single intravenous infusion of CABA-201 after preconditioning with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The study will track side effects for up to 28 days after the CABA-201 infusion, and measure improvement for up to 16 or 24 weeks depending on your specific condition.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Age ≥18 and ≤75
A clinical diagnosis of IIM, based on the 2017 The European League Against Rheumatism/American College of Rheumatology classification criteria
Diagnosis of DM, ASyS, or IMNM
Evidence of active disease, despite prior or current treatment with standard of care treatments, as defined by the presence of elevated creatine kinase (CK), DM rash, or active disease on muscle biopsy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or electromyography
Presence of muscle weakness
Age ≥6 and ≤17 years at enrollment
A clinical diagnosis of IIM, based on the 2017 The European League Against Rheumatism/American College of Rheumatology classification criteria
Evidence of active disease, despite prior or current treatment with standard of care treatments, as defined by the presence of elevated muscle enzymes, DM rash, or active disease on muscle biopsy, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or electromyography

Exclusion
