Recruiting PHASE2 Systemic Sclerosis Associated Interstitial Lung Disease

Tests treatment safety and results for Systemic Sclerosis Associated Interstitial Lung Disease

Official title A Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Phase II Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy, and Pharmacokinetic Profile of Genakumab Injection in Patients With Connective Tissue Disease-associated Interstitial Lung Disease

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06189495

What this study is testing

What is GenSci048?

GenSci048 is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for systemic sclerosis associated interstitial lung disease.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This study was conducted in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled design to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Genakumab injection in the treatment of CTD-ILD including Rheumatoid Arthritis associated Interstitial Lung Disease (RA-ILD) and Systemic Sclerosis associated Interstitial Lung Disease (SSc-ILD)
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
