The Immune Map Study

Currently Recruiting

Up to $15,250

Melbourne, Australia

This study is exploring a potential new treatment for autoimmune and inflammatory conditions. This study is a B-cell depletion study, which is a type of clinical trial that tests a potential treatment designed to reduce or remove B cells, which are a type of white blood cell that plays a key role in the immune system. The goal is to see if this helps treat diseases where the immune system is overactive, and to check that it’s safe for people. These conditions can include lupus (SLE), and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Join our clinical trial

This is a first-in-human (FIH) study, meaning it is the first time the potential treatment is being tested in people. The study has been carefully designed with strict safety protocols and has been approved by an independent ethics committee. It is not known whether the study drug may cause unexpected, serious, or life-threatening side effects. While these are considered unlikely, you will be carefully monitored throughout the study and provided with prompt treatment if any such effects occur.

Before joining, you’ll receive detailed information about the study, meet with a doctor, and have the chance to ask any questions.
