About this trial
The goal of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of orally taken probiotic (R-2487) in patients with Sjogren's Syndrome.
Patients will take an oral dosage of probiotic (R-2487) and physicians will assess and measure their Sjogren's Syndrome. Blood and fecal evaluations of inflammation and assessment of probiotic (R-2487) on fecal level will also be measured.

Primary outcomes
Incidence and severity of adverse events and their relationship to R-2487 (probiotic) administration
To assess the number of participants with treatment-related adverse events after taking R-2487 (probiotic)
Secondary outcomes
Change in disease activity through Clinical European League Against Rheumatism Sjögren's Syndrome Disease Activity Index (ClinESSDAI)
Change from Baseline in Disease Activity Score at Week 4 to assess the disease severity of Sjogren's syndrome using data without laboratory results
Change in Patient reported general health questionnaire Short Form Health Survey-36(SF-36)
Baseline Short Form Health Survey-36 (SF-36) Score over time. The Baseline Short Form Health Survey is the numerical sum of 36 patient reported outcome parameters of quality of life. The higher the score the more favorable the reflection of the quality of life.
