Lupus clinical trials in New York

This trial aims to find out if obe-cel gets rid of harmful B cells that contribute to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)/lupus nephritis (LN) when available treatments have not worked (refractory). The trial includes only 1 group of patients (single arm), including adolescent and adult patients aged 12 to 65 years. The objective is to look for benefits of obe-cel in making signs of LN completely disappear (remission) at 6 months after obe-cel treatment in patients with severe, active LN. The trial will also look for other benefits of obe-cel for up to 24 months after treatment, including the percentage of patients who respond to obe-cel treatment, SLE/LN activity, time to and length of remission, and quality of life. The trial will also assess how long obe-cel stays in the body and the safety of obe-cel.

The purpose of this study is to allow the continued administration of Deucravacitinib in participants with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) or Discoid and/or Subacute Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus (DLE/SCLE) who have completed study IM011074 or Study IM011132

Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is a systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) medication that has been very effective in reducing lupus disease activity and keeping patients stable with reduced symptoms. Despite a track record of safety with regard to infection compared to traditional immunosuppressive agents, the risk of HCQ retinal toxicity escalates with continued use. Evaluation using sensitive standard of care approaches suggests nearly a third of patients accrue retinal damage. Data are needed to accurately weigh the balance between accumulating ocular exposure of HCQ versus the risk of disease flare in a population that may have more inactive disease than younger patients. The purpose of this trial is to address the safety of withdrawal of HCQ in SLE patients =60 years old. The central hypothesis is that HCQ can be safely discontinued in stable/quiescent patients assessed by validated disease activity and flare instruments in the context of serologic, cytokine and transcriptomic profiling. Patients will be randomized to either the placebo or active arm and followed every 2 months for one year to assess disease activity and flares.

This is a multi-center double-blind placebo controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of VIB4920 combined with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and prednisone in achieving a renal response in participants with active lupus nephritis (LN).

This phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetics (PK) of obinutuzumab in adolescent participants (AP) aged 12 to less than 18 with biopsy-confirmed proliferative lupus nephritis (LN). It will also evaluate open label safety and PK of obinutuzumab in pediatric participants (PP), aged 5 to \<12 with LN.
