Research summary
This study is testing CABA-201 in adult patients with Idiopathic Inflammatory Myopathy, including dermatomyositis, anti-synthetase syndrome, or immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy, who are not seeing improvement from other treatments. CABA-201 is a chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy (CART) that aims to find and remove B cells in the patient's body , including those that are thought to cause their disease. Prior to CABA-201 infusion, patients will receive a pre conditioning treatment of fludarabine and cyclophosphamide to help the CABA-201 infusion work better. Patients will be expected to remain on study for up to 3 years, including screening, pre-treatment, CABA-201 infusion and follow up, with an additional long term follow up period of 15 years post CABA-201 infusion.
