Current Research Studies with Open Enrollment

Participating in Clinical Research Trials

It is very important for patients with vasculitis to support research to advance a better understanding of this rare disease. Research may lead to determining the cause of vasculitis, earlier diagnosis, more effective treatment, prevention of flares and hopefully, some day a cure.

Be informed about studies pertaining to any of the diseases. Enroll in a study. Researchers of rare diseases sometimes have difficulty finding subjects. Patient participation is key to research. Check back here often for information about relevant ongoing studies.

Clinical trials are people-based studies of new drugs or procedures. Doctors use clinical trials to learn whether a new treatment is safe and effective in patients. Such studies are vital to the development of new treatments for diseases such as vasculitis.

The VF works closely with doctors around the world to inform patients with vasculitis about ongoing clinical trials. Participating in a clinical trial gives patients access to expert doctors, new research treatments and the opportunity to help further medical research on vasculitis.
