About this clinical trial

MTX-101 is an antibody/protein that targets regulatory CD8 T cells, which help control inflammation. In some individuals, these cells malfunction, leading to uncontrolled inflammation and autoimmune diseases. MTX-101 is administered via infusion and binds to KIR2DL and CD8 receptors on regulatory CD8 T cells. This restores their function, reducing inflammation and potentially managing autoimmune diseases like coeliac disease. Wesley Research Institute is participating in Part B of this study. Part B CeD will evaluate two dose levels across two cohorts (B8 and B9), each enrolling 6–10 participants. Cohort B8 has two groups: B8 Group 1 receives MTX-101 on Days 1 and 29, then placebo on Day 57, while B8 Group 2 gets placebo first, then MTX-101 on Days 29 and 57. Cohort B9 follows a similar structure but without the Day 57 dose.  

This clinical trial does not require a gluten challenge.
