A Phase 2 Proof of Concept Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Daxdilimab in Participants With Dermatomyositis (DM) or Anti-synthetase Inflammatory Myositis (ASIM)

The primary efficacy objective: To evaluate the effect of daxdilimab compared with placebo in reducing disease activity at Week 24. The secondary efficacy objectives include: 1. To evaluate the effect of daxdilimab compared with placebo in reducing disease activity at Week 24. 2. To evaluate the effect of daxdilimab compared with placebo on skin symptoms at Week 24. 3. To evaluate the effect of daxdilimab on decreasing the use of corticosteroid at Week 24. Other secondary objectives include: 1. To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) and immunogenicity of daxdilimab in participants. 2. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of daxdilimab in participants.

Follow-up of Patients With Inflammatory Myopathies Associated With a Biobank

Myositis are rare diseases for which the development of a cohort associated with a bank of biological samples (biobank) will allow for the conduct of researches to better delineate the underlying pathophysiology and find cures. This prospective cohort of patients with myositis will allow for identification of factors favouring the occurrence of myositis, whether they are constitutional (genetic) or acquired (environmental or drug). Different subgroups of myositis used for prognostication will be identified based on clinico-demographical variables, the nature of the organs involved beyond peripheral muscles (cardiac, diaphragm) and biomarkers abnormalities
