Clinical Trials

The purpose of this study is to learn more about bullous pemphigoid disease testings called BP180 and BP230 in patients without a clinical diagnosis of bullous pemphigoid. 

The primary purpose of this study is to demonstrate that Dupilumab is superior to placebo in achieving sustained remission off oral corticosteroids (OCS) in patients with bullous pemphigoid (BP). 

Recently, Interleukin (IL)-17 has been identified as a key driver of chronic inflammation in Bullous Pemphigoid (BP). Ixekizumab is a recombinant high-affinity fully human monoclonal antibody that targets IL-17A Immunoglobulin gamma-1 (IgG1)/kappa-class. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of Ixekizumab on BP patients.

The purpose of this study is to obtain serum from patients with certain rare immunobullous diseases (e.g., paraneoplastic pemphigus, laminin-332 pemphigoid) to replenish a source of positive control for our clinical testing (e.g., Mayo test codes PNPAB, RSBV).  

• To verify the performance characteristics of anti-Paraneoplastic Pemphigus (PNP) serum and validate its use as a positive control in PNP test.  

• Serum from patients with PNP will be used for a positive control for the PNP test upon successful validation. 

Background:  

For various rare immunobullous diseases, detection of a circulating autoantibody is necessary for accurate diagnosis. As a CLIA requirement, every clinical test run requires positive ...

The purpose of this study is to learn more about Lewy Body disease and a skin condition called Bullous Pemphigoid.
