How belimumab changes lupus over time
Part of Immune system & allergy, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at how the drug belimumab affects the long-term course of lupus. It compares patients who receive belimumab to similar patients who do not, to see if it helps control disease activity over time.

This study looks at people with systemic lupus (lupus) who have already started belimumab (a lupus medicine). It mainly focuses on whether participants who meet lupus diagnosis rules and choose to join can be followed in the study.
This study tests whether a medicine called belimumab (Benlysta) works better for people diagnosed with lupus in the last 2 years. It aims to slow down the disease before it causes lasting organ damage.
This trial tests belimumab to see if it can improve lupus (SLE) disease activity in people who were diagnosed within the last two years. You may be eligible if your lupus is currently mild to moderate and your background lupus medicines are stable.
This study looks at how well belimumab (Benlysta) works in real-world settings for adults with lupus nephritis (kidney inflammation caused by lupus). If you started belimumab in the past 6–24 months, the researchers will review your medical records to see how your kidney health has changed.
This study compares two medications, Telitacicept and Belimumab, to see which works better for people with active lupus that hasn't improved with standard treatments. The goal is to find a more effective option for managing symptoms.
This study tests the long-term safety and effectiveness of belimumab for people with lung scarring caused by scleroderma or other connective tissue diseases. It is for patients who already completed a one-year study with belimumab and were not considered treatment failures.
