Study summary

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.

Eligibility criteria

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age: 12 to 70 years old.
  • Diagnosis: Must have active B-cell mediated disease (SLE, AAV, IIM, or SSc) confirmed by standard criteria.
  • Disease Severity: Moderate to severe, requiring at least two prior treatments that were ineffective.
  • Health Status: Adequate organ function to tolerate treatment.
  • Consent: Able to provide or assent/obtain parental consent and comply with study procedures.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: Women must not be pregnant or nursing.
  • Severe Organ Dysfunction: Significant heart, lung, liver, or kidney impairment.
  • Active Infections: No recent or ongoing serious infections.
  • Recent Cancer or Prior Cell Therapy: No active/recent , prior CAR T-cell therapy, or organ transplant.
  • Allergies: No known allergies to study treatments.
  • Weight Restriction: Must weigh at least 50 kg (110 lbs).
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Autoimmune disease

A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.

Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)

    The number of participants with TEAEs will be reported.

    Time frame: Up to approximately 2 years

  2. Number of participants with serious TEAEs

    The number of participants with serious TEAEs will be reported.

    Time frame: Up to approximately 2 years

  3. Number of participants with dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)

    The number of participants with DLTs will be reported.

    Time frame: Up to approximately 29 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Plasma concentration of FT819

    The plasma concentration of FT819 will be determined.

    Time frame: At designated time points up to approximately 29 days

  2. Impact of treatment on quality of life

    Assess changes in patient-reported health outcomes using the SF-36 survey.
