This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of the GT801 injection in people with moderate-to-severe treatment-resistant autoimmune diseases. It can enroll patients aged 18 to 65 with systemic lupus erythematosus, idiopathic inflammatory myopathy, systemic sclerosis, ANCA-associated vasculitis, or Sjogren's syndrome who have not responded to previous treatments. The study is being carried out in Early Phase 1 and is currently recruiting participants.
The summary above is a plain-language rendering of the official record. The original English title is shown for reference.
