RECRUITINGPhase 1INTERVENTIONAL

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

A Phase 1 Dose Evaluation Study of the Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Anti-CD19 Allogeneic CRISPR-Cas9-Engineered T Cells (CTX112) in Adult Subjects With Refractory Autoimmune Disease

A Safety and Efficacy Study Evaluating CTX112 in Adult Subjects With Refractory Autoimmune Disease (NCT06925542) is a Phase 1 interventional studying SLE (Systemic Lupus) and Lupus Erythematosus, Systemic, sponsored by Crispr Therapeutics. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

About This Trial

This is a single-arm, open-label, multicenter, ascending dose Phase 1 study evaluating the safety and preliminary efficacy of CTX112 in adult subjects with refractory autoimmune diseases, including active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), systemic sclerosis (SSc), or idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM).

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 1 trials test a new treatment for the first time in humans, focusing on safety, dosing, and how the body processes the drug. For SLE (Systemic Lupus), a Phase 1 study typically enrolls a small number of participants — often healthy volunteers or patients who have exhausted standard treatment options. Phase 1 results determine whether a treatment moves into larger Phase 2 efficacy studies.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

Target enrollment of 80 participants puts this in the typical range for a Phase 2-style efficacy study or a moderate Phase 3 trial in a focused SLE (Systemic Lupus) subpopulation. At this scale, the study has enough statistical power to detect a clear treatment effect but is not the largest cohort in the field.
