Study Summary

This trial is testing different additional doses of COVID-19 vaccine in people with autoimmune diseases who didn't have a strong response to their initial vaccine.

Who is the study for?
Adults and children with autoimmune diseases like lupus, arthritis, MS, or pemphigus who had a weak response to previous COVID-19 vaccines can join. They must be on certain immune-suppressing meds and not have active infections or recent severe vaccine reactions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing different booster shots of COVID-19 vaccines in people with autoimmune diseases taking immune system medications. It's checking which boosters help the most when the first vaccine doses didn't work well enough.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include typical vaccine reactions like soreness at the injection site, tiredness, headache, muscle pain, chills, fever, nausea. Rarely there might be allergic reactions or heart inflammation.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

How many Canadian sites are hosting this clinical trial?

"30 different medical centres across the United States are participating in this trial. Major cities such as Atlanta, Philadelphia, and Cleveland have a presence amongst other more local clinics. To reduce travel demands it is advised to pick the facility closest to you if one decides to join."

Answered by AI

Has the FDA sanctioned using IS (MMF or MPA) as a medical treatment?

"Our internal rating system for safety reflects that IS (MMF or MPA) is a 2 on the scale of 1-3. This score is based upon the fact that this Phase 2 trial has some evidence indicating its security, but none yet confirming efficacy."

Answered by AI

What is the primary goal of this medical experiment?

"The aim of this trial, to be assessed over a 4 week period following vaccine booster dose administration, is to determine the proportion of adults and children who develop protective antibodies in response. Additionally, secondary objectives include assessing the rate at which participants are infected with SARS-CoV-2 (Sever Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus) as well as any changes in disease activity using Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Information System (PROMIS-29) self report assessments. Lastly, PROMIS will also be utilized on pediatric patients to measure Child Onset Lupus Erythematosus Global Flare severity."

Answered by AI

How has IS (MMF or MPA) been studied in the past?

"At present, there are 389 ongoing clinical studies pertaining to IS (MMF or MPA), with 98 in the final stage of research. Of these trials, the majority is centred around Nellore, AP. However, a total of 10100 medical centres are conducting clinical trials for IS (MMF or MPA)."

Answered by AI

Which medical condition is IS (MMF or MPA) typically prescribed to address?

"Intravenous use of either mycophenalate mofetil (MMF) or mycophenolate sodium (MPA) is often prescribed to treat small cell lung cancer, active pauciarticular juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, head and neck carcinoma, and multiple sclerosis."

Answered by AI

What is the scope of participants in this clinical trial?

"The trial sponsor, Rho Federal Systems Division, Inc., is looking for 2340 participants that match the inclusion criteria. The study will be implemented across multiple sites, such as Benaroya Research Institute at Virginia Mason: Internal Medicine in Atlanta and Emory University School of Medicine: Division of Rheumatology in Philadelphia."

Answered by AI

Are any openings available for research participants in this investigation?
