Summary

This trial is testing dazodalibep, a medication, to see if it can help people with moderate-to-severe Sjögren's Syndrome. The goal is to reduce their symptoms and improve their quality of life. Researchers will also check if the medication is safe and well-tolerated by patients.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with Sjögren's Syndrome who have moderate-to-severe symptoms despite treatment. Participants must meet specific diagnostic criteria, have a certain disease activity score (ESSDAI >= 5), and test positive for anti-Ro autoantibodies or rheumatoid factor.
What is being tested?
The study tests Dazodalibep's effectiveness on systemic symptoms of Sjögren's Syndrome compared to a placebo. It also looks at how well patients feel after the treatment (patient reported outcomes) and checks the safety and comfort of using Dazodalibep.
What are the potential side effects?
While not specified here, potential side effects may include reactions where the drug is injected, flu-like symptoms, changes in blood tests, fatigue, or other immune-related conditions due to its action on the immune system.

Mechanism Of Action
Side Effect Profile
Prior Approvals
Other Research
The most common treatments for Sjögren's Syndrome often involve immunosuppressive and biologic agents that target various aspects of the immune system. Dazodalibep, for example, inhibits the CD40-CD40L interaction, which is crucial in the activation of B cells and T cells, thereby reducing systemic inflammation and autoimmune activity. Other treatments, such as Rituximab, target CD20 on B cells to deplete them, reducing autoantibody production and inflammation. Hydroxychloroquine modulates the immune response by inhibiting toll-like receptors, which decreases the activation of immune cells. These mechanisms are vital for Sjögren's Syndrome patients as they help manage systemic disease activity, reduce symptoms, and prevent organ damage, thereby improving quality of life.
