Contact Info:

A phase 1/ 2 clinical trial, investigating a treatment that uses your own T cells to treat myositis 

Who Can Participate:
  • Children ages 6+ and adults with active myositis (JDM, JPM, or adult forms)
  • Must have active disease
  • Learn more here

A study physician will determine final eligibility.

How It Works:
  • T cells are extracted from the patient, reengineered into CAR T cells, and returned to the patient to target harmful immune cells that may be causing disease
  • All participants in the RESET-Myositis Trial will receive CAR-T cell therapy— there is no placebo group in this study
  • Learn more about the CAR-T process and how it works here

The trial is enrolling at multiple locations across the U.S., including:
