Blood test for lupus activity
Part of Immune system & allergy, Kidney & urinary, Skin, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study aims to see if a blood test that measures a specific protein-related molecule can help doctors know how active your lupus is. If successful, this could lead to a simpler way to monitor the disease and adjust treatment.

This study looks at a simple blood test (called the Systemic Immune Inflammatory Index) to see if it can help doctors understand how active lupus is in your body. It includes people with lupus, especially those with kidney involvement, to find better ways to track the disease.
This study looks at whether simple blood tests can help doctors better understand and track kidney problems that occur in people with lupus. The goal is to see if these markers can predict how the disease will progress, which could help guide treatment.
This study looks at blood and urine markers that may show how active lupus kidney disease is and how it changes over time. It may help doctors better monitor people with active lupus-related kidney inflammation.
This study looks at whether a blood test for a specific antibody can help doctors understand how active lupus kidney disease is. It may help guide treatment decisions for people with lupus nephritis.
This study looks at whether two blood test markers (called T IgG and T IgM) can help doctors understand how active your lupus is and how much damage the disease has caused. If you join, your blood will be tested, and the results may help guide your treatment.
This study aims to find better ways to detect kidney problems in people with lupus by testing blood and urine samples. If you have lupus, you may help researchers improve how kidney disease is diagnosed and monitored.
