A Safety and Efficacy Study Evaluating CTX112 in Subjects With Refractory Neurologic Autoimmune Disease

This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, ascending dose Phase 1/2 trial evaluating the safety and preliminary efficacy of CTX112 in adult participants with neurological autoimmune diseases (AIDs), including Progressive Multiple Sclerosis, relapsing Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder, relapsing Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antiody-Associated Disease, refractory AutoImmune Encephalitis, and refractory Stiff Person Syndrome

Evaluating Spinal Cord Stimulation for Stiff Person Syndrome

The purpose of this prospective pilot study is to gather preliminary evidence evaluating spinal cord stimulation (SCS) as a potential therapy for the treatment of rigidity and painful spasms in patients with stiff person syndrome (SPS), a rare autoimmune neurological condition. The hypothesis is that SCS-mediated clinical improvement occurs through multi-modal mechanisms of action targeting several components of neuronal inhibitory signaling pathways in the spinal cord.

Biomarkers in Autoimmune Disease of Nervous System

Neurological autoimmune diseases are a group of disorders characterized by the abnormal immune response attacking the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves. These diseases exhibit high heterogeneity, diverse clinical presentations, and are challenging to diagnose and manage due to a lack of effective treatments. In this study, the investigators will recruit eight kinds of autoimmune diseases of nervous system including Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder (NMOSD), Myasthenia Gravis (MG), Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP), idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM), and multiple sclerosis (MS), autoimmune encephalitis (AE), Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody-Associated Disease (MOGAD). Through this study, the investigators aim to discover biomarkers with high sensitivity, specificity, and stability, which can support early diagnosis, disease monitoring, and personalized treatment for neurological autoimmune diseases, thereby improving the quality of life and prognosis for patients.

KYSA-8: A Study of Anti-CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell (CD19 CAR T) Therapy, in Subjects With Treatment Refractory Stiff Person Syndrome

A Study of Anti-CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy for Subjects with Treatment Refractory Stiff Person Syndrome

Efgartigimod for Stiff Person Syndrome (ESPS)

The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the proportion of patients with stiff person syndrome with no worsening in stiffness and/or spasms while on efgartigimod-hyaluronidase (EFD) when compared to their current treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: * proportion of patients with stiff person syndrome with no worsening in DSI and HSS scores * whether there are changes in laboratory values, vital signs, electrocardiogram, or depression, and suicide risk during the trial, as well as the incidence of any adverse events. Participants will come to the clinic up to 18 times and have up to 5 phone call visits during the course of the trial. During these visits a variety of measures will be collected, including blood samples, neurological and physical exams, patient reported outcomes on stiffness, spasms, depression, and suicide risk.
