Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Aged ≥18 years (inclusive of the boundary value), with no restriction on gender.
  • Expected survival time of ≥3 months.
  • moderate - to - severe active systemic sclerosis that has failed standard treatment or lacks effective therapeutic options.
  • Meets the requirements for liver and kidney function, as well as cardiopulmonary function.
  • Free from severe psychiatric disorders.
  • Able to understand the trial and has signed the form.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • A history of malignant tumors other than diseases (R/R AID) within 5 years prior to screening.
  • Positive results in virology/syphilis tests.
  • Severe cardiac diseases or unstable systemic diseases.
  • Presence of active or uncontrollable infections requiring systemic treatment, or evidence of central nervous system invasion.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women, female subjects planning to become pregnant within 2 years after cell infusion, or male subjects whose partners plan to become pregnant within 2 years after their cell infusion.

  • Subjects who participated in other clinical studies within 1 month prior to screening.
  • Other conditions deemed unsuitable for enrollment by the investigator.
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.

Relapsed and refractory

Relapsed: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.

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.

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.

    Time frame: About 1 year

  2. Tmax

    Time to reach maximum concentration in peripheral blood after administration of UTAA91 injection

    Time frame: About 1 year

  3. Disease remission rate

    The disease remission/response/improvement rates at 28 days, 2 months, and 3 months after treatment with UTAA09 injection.

    Time frame: About 3 months
