Summary

"This trial aims to see if anifrolumab is effective and safe for treating Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies (IIM) in patients with moderate to severe symptoms like polymyos

Who is the study for?
Adults with moderate to severe Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathies (IIM), specifically Polymyositis or Dermatomyositis, who are already on standard treatments can join. Details about specific inclusion and exclusion criteria are not provided here.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the effectiveness and safety of Anifrolumab, given as a shot under the skin, compared to a placebo. Both will be added to usual care for IIM. It's randomized and double-blind, meaning neither participants nor researchers know who gets what during the study.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of Anifrolumab may include reactions at the injection site, increased risk of infections due to immune system suppression, and other potential immune-related issues.
