LUPUS NEPHRITIS

This study tests whether combining rituximab with a low dose of mycophenolate mofetil can safely and effectively treat lupus nephritis in children. Lupus nephritis is a serious kidney complication of lupus. The trial enrolls children aged 3 to 18 with active kidney inflammation. …

This early-phase trial tests a single infusion of universal CAR-T cells (RD06-05) in 30 children and adolescents with severe autoimmune diseases, including lupus, scleroderma, and kidney inflammation. The cells are designed to target and calm overactive immune cells. The main goa…

This early-stage trial will test the safety and tolerability of a new drug, cevostamab, in 46 people with systemic lupus erythematosus, some of whom also have active lupus nephritis. The drug is given intravenously, and researchers will monitor side effects and how the drug moves…

This phase 2 trial is testing a new treatment called FT819 for people with lupus nephritis, a serious kidney complication of lupus. FT819 is made from donor immune cells that are engineered to target and destroy faulty B cells. The study will enroll 53 participants and aims to se…

This study tests whether regularly measuring the amount of mycophenolate mofetil in the blood helps more people with lupus kidney disease achieve kidney remission. One hundred adults with active lupus nephritis will be split into two groups: one gets standard dosing, the other ge…

This study tests a new drug, SIM0278, in 60 adults with active lupus nephritis, a kidney disease caused by lupus. Participants will receive either SIM0278 or a placebo, and researchers will check if the drug helps improve kidney function over 52 weeks. The goal is to see if SIM02…

This early study tests a new drug called STR-P004 in 9 adults with immune-mediated kidney diseases. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how the body processes it. Participants receive up to 8 infusions over 28 days, with possible dose increases. This is not a cure; it aims…

This early-phase trial is testing a new treatment called CRC01 for people with severe lupus nephritis, a serious kidney complication of lupus. The therapy uses a patient's own immune cells, which are modified in a lab to target and destroy certain immune cells that drive the dise…

This study looks at whether measuring anti-alpha-actinin antibodies in the blood can help identify active lupus nephritis (kidney inflammation) in people with lupus. Researchers will compare antibody levels with findings from standard kidney biopsies in 96 adults. If the blood te…

This study will check if people with lupus nephritis have low zinc levels and how that relates to kidney function. Researchers will measure zinc, urea, creatinine, and other markers in 75 participants. The goal is to better understand the connection, not to test a treatment.

This study will measure levels of a protein called IL-33 in the blood of 150 people: lupus patients with kidney inflammation, lupus patients without kidney issues, and healthy volunteers. Researchers want to see if higher IL-33 levels are linked to more severe disease, especially…
