Study of AFN50 injection for active lupus
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests an investigational injection called AFN50 for people whose lupus (SLE) remains active despite standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug can safely help control lupus symptoms better than current therapies alone.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 69 years old and have a definite diagnosis of lupus (SLE) based on updated guidelines.
- Your lupus has stayed active or come back even though you have been on stable treatment (steroids, antimalarials, or immune-suppressing drugs) for at least 8 weeks.
- You must have tried and not responded well to hydroxychloroquine OR at least two other standard immune-suppressing drugs.
- You need to have blood test results showing lupus-related markers: a positive ANA or anti-dsDNA test, or low complement levels.
- You cannot have certain infections (like hepatitis B, C, HIV, CMV, syphilis), a history of major organ transplant, or certain heart problems.
- You must not be pregnant or breastfeeding and agree to use birth control for 12 months after receiving the injection.
