Lupus clinical trials — recruiting now

The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term safety and tolerability of ianalumab in participants with systemic lupus erythematosus who have previously completed the treatment period in one of the two SIRIUS-SLE core studies (CVAY736F12301 or CVAY736F12302).

This is an open-label investigator-initiated trial (IIT) to assess the safety, efficacy, and PK（pharmacokinetic）/PD（pharmacodynamics ） of UB-VV410 in adult subjects with clinically active treatment-refractory SLE. The study population will include subjects with active LN (as defined by evidence of active inflammation on renal biopsy, referred to as the LN cohort) and subjects with active SLE without LN (ie, non-LN SLE, referred to as the non-LN cohort). It is expected that the safety profile of UB-VV410 will be similar in subjects with active LN and subjects with active non-LN SLE; thus, dose finding (DF) will be conducted in the 2 subpopulation cohorts combined. Dose expansion (DE) may be conducted separately in the LN and non-LN cohorts to characterize the preliminary efficacy of UB-VV410, as well as its safety and PK/PD, in each subpopulation. The objective of this study is to determine the MTD（maximum tolerated dose）/MAD（maximum administered dose） and the recommended dose for subsequent studies of UB-VV410 in subjects with active LN and in subjects with active non-LN SLE. The DF portion will evaluate the safety profile of UB-VV410 administered at various DLs（dose levels）. The DE portion will further optimize the dose and define the safety profile and preliminary efficacy of UB VV410. The study will use the Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design to allocate subjects to various DLs to minimize exposure to subtherapeutic DLs while maintaining appropriate safety parameters. DF will be initiated with UB-VV410 administered IV and starting at DL1. During DF, additional subjects may be backfilled at DLs found to be safe per the BOIN design and with promising activity. After DF of UB-VV410 has been completed, DE with up to 14 subjects per DL within each subpopulation cohort (eg, LN and non-LN cohorts) may be implemented at DLs less than or equal to the MTD/MAD and demonstrating efficacy to further characterize the toxicity, tolerability, PK/PD, and preliminary efficacy of UB-VV410 at the selected DLs. The DE portion will further characterize product safety and preliminary efficacy in order to optimize benefit/risk. The number of DLs for DE will be determined based on the safety, activity and PK/PD data observed from DF. In addition, some subjects may receive retreatment with UB-VV410 if there are preliminary findings suggesting incomplete improvement and acceptable safety.

This is a phase l/ll open-label, multicentre, interventional single-arm trial of MB-CART19.1 in patients with refractory SLE systemic lupus erythematosus. In the phase I part, a maximum of n=12 patients will be treated in a maximum of 3 dose levels. In the phase IIa part, a maximum of n=17 will be treated (n=10 patients in a 1st stage + n=7 patients in a 2nd stage). This includes the patients from the phase I part treated on the recommended dose level.

This is an observational, multicenter, prospective study on patients with systemic lupus erythematosus treated with anifrolumab in Italy aimed at evaluating the achievement of LLDAS5

SILENT-LN is a prospective observational cohort study of adults with systemic lupus erythematosus, including participants with no renal involvement, suspected renal involvement, active lupus nephritis, previous lupus nephritis, or inactive lupus nephritis. The study will measure pre-specified blood and urine biomarkers longitudinally during routine clinical care. The study will evaluate whether blood and urine biomarker concentrations and biomarker panel scores are associated with active lupus nephritis, incident lupus nephritis, renal flare, treatment response, remission or inactive renal disease, kidney biopsy findings, and long-term renal outcomes. Participants will provide blood and urine samples during routine clinical follow-up visits and at visits where renal involvement is clinically suspected. Clinical data, standard laboratory tests, disease activity assessments, kidney function measures, treatment information, and kidney biopsy findings, when available, will be recorded. A predefined increase or persistent elevation in blood or urine biomarker levels will trigger a structured renal assessment, and kidney biopsy or re-biopsy may be performed if the integrated clinical assessment indicates suspected renal involvement, renal flare, or uncertainty regarding renal inflammatory activity and the procedure is considered safe and clinically appropriate. The study is currently conducted at Oslo University Hospital, Riks Hospital and may expand to additional centers following funding and regulatory approvals.

This is an open-label, multi-ascending dose (MAD) phase 1 study, with dose expansion at selected doses, in adult patients with select autoimmune rheumatic diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The purpose of the study is to identify possible optimal dose(s) by assessing the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), immunogenicity, and preliminary clinical response of SAR448501/DR-0201. The study duration per participant will be a minimum of approximately 13 months, including a screening period of up to 28 days, a treatment period of 71 days, and a follow-up period of 42 weeks. If necessary, participants will continue to have visits after End of Study (EOS) every 4 weeks until peripheral blood B cells return to at least 80% of either the lower limit of normal (LLN) or the participant's baseline value.

The investigators are registering LN patients at recruited hospitals and developing a LN database in China. Patients will be follow-up every year, and both baseline and follow-up information will be entered into the registration system.

CAR T-cell Therapy Targeting CD19 and BCMA in Patients With Relapse/Refractory Autoimmune Diseases

Chlordecone, an organochlorine pesticide, was widely used on banana farms in the French West Indies. Studies by Inserm and health authorities have confirmed the contamination of the food chain and the majority of the population of the French West Indies by chlordecone. Epidemiological studies conducted in the French West Indies have shown that exposure to chlordecone at the levels observed is associated with an increased risk of developing several diseases, including premature birth and prostate cancer. Many of the adverse effects associated with chlordecone could be explained by its estrogenic hormonal properties, and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease whose sensitivity to estrogen is well known and is reflected by 1) its clear predominance in women, 2) its predominance in women of childbearing age, 3) its risk of exacerbation in the event of pregnancy. Chlordecone has the potential to modify the activity of SLE through mechanisms other than its pro-estrogenic effects. In rats, chlordecone was observed to induce alterations such as a reduction in lymphocyte count, thymic atrophy, and a decrease in splenic germinal centers and NK cells. In a mouse model of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), exposure to chlordecone results in increased production of immune complexes and anti-DNA antibodies, which are markers of disease activity and monitoring. Chlordecone also has a cellular effect that reduces the apoptosis of potentially auto-reactive lymphocytes and stimulates the production of GM-CSF, IL-2, TNF-alpha, and IFN-gamma. The latter is central to the pathophysiology of SLE. While experimental studies suggest a potential impact of chlordecone on SLE, no human studies have been conducted to date, and the chlordecone impregnation of lupus patients in Martinique remains unknown. The most serious and feared complication of SLE is kidney damage. Kidney damage from the disease and the necessary immunosuppressive treatments can lead to significant morbidity and mortality, including death and end-stage chronic renal failure. Therefore, it is important to manage the disease carefully. Suspected lupus nephritis is confirmed by a renal biopsy, which allows for formal diagnosis and categorization into several classes. Suspected cases are identified by a proteinuria to creatininuria ratio greater than 0.5 g/g (or 24-hour proteinuria greater than 0.5g). The objective of this project is to determine whether there is a positive association between lupus nephritis occurrence in patients followed by the internal medicine department of the Martinique University Hospital and organochlorine pesticide chlordecone impregnation.

RESET-SLE: A Phase 1/2 Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of CABA-201 in Subjects With Active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

This study is open to adults with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 3000202 helps people with SLE. The study tests different doses of BI 3000202 and aims to find the best dose for people with this condition. Participants are put into 5 groups randomly, which means by chance. 4 groups get different doses of BI 3000202, and 1 group gets a placebo. Placebo tablets look like BI 3000202 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take the tablets for 1 year. All participants also continue their regular treatment for SLE. Participants are in the study for a bit longer than 1 year. During this time, they visit the study site regularly. Doctors check the participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects. They also compare the results between the groups to see if the treatment works.

This is a phase 1, open-label, non-randomized study enrolling pediatric and young adult research participants with treatment-refractory Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), to examine the safety, feasibility, and efficacy of administering T cell products derived from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) that have been genetically modified to express CD19 specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) A child or young adult meeting all eligibility criteria and meeting none of the exclusion criteria will have their T cells collected. The T cells will then be bioengineered into a CAR T cell that targets circulating and tissue residing B cells.
