4 Bullous Pemphigoid Trials

Power is an online platform that helps thousands of Bullous Pemphigoid patients discover FDA-reviewed trials every day. Every trial we feature meets safety and ethical standards, giving patients an easy way to discover promising new treatments in the research stage.

This trial is testing a new drug called RAY121, which aims to help people with certain immune system diseases by blocking a part of the immune system that causes inflammation. The trial will check if the drug is safe and effective for patients with conditions like APS, BP, BS, DM, IMNM, and ITP.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of efgartigimod PH20 SC over a longer period of time in adult participants with moderate-to-severe bullous pemphigoid (BP) who have completed ARGX-113-2009 study. The study will also evaluate the efficacy of efgartigimod PH20 SC. Eligible participants can roll over from the main study (ARGX-113-2009) to this open-label extension study (ARGX-113-2010). The study consists of a treatment period of up to 48 weeks in which participants receive efgartigimod PH20 SC. After the first 5 visits, the participants will visit the study centers at least once every 4 weeks. The participants who are not receiving efgartigimod PH20 SC (after the main study or currently on the study), will enter an observation period with study visits at least once every 8 weeks. If the participant relapses, they can re-enter the treatment period where they will receive efgartigimod PH20 SC. The treatment and observation period is followed by a follow-up period of 8 weeks. Oral or topical corticosterioids can be administered at the investigator's indiscretion

The main purpose of this study is to investigate whether dupilumab is effective and safe for the treatment of bullous pemphigoid. Dupilumab is a type of drug called a "monoclonal antibody". An antibody is a special kind of protein that the immune (defense) system normally makes to fight bacteria and viruses. Bullous pemphigoid is an autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease, predominately affecting the elderly (typical onset after age 60). The study is looking at several other research questions, including: * Side effects that may be experienced by people taking dupilumab * How dupilumab works in the body and affects the body * How dupilumab affects quality of life * How much dupilumab is present in the blood * To see if dupilumab works to wean the patient off oral corticosteroids

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Bullous Pemphigoid clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Bullous Pemphigoid clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Bullous Pemphigoid trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Bullous Pemphigoid is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Bullous Pemphigoid medical study ?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Bullous Pemphigoid clinical trials ?

Most recently, we added Humira for Eye Inflammation, RAY121 for Immune System Disorders and Efgartigimod for Bullous Pemphigoid to the Power online platform.
