Summary

This study follows 200 adults with lupus who are starting anifrolumab for the first time, to see how well it works in everyday clinics. Researchers will measure disease activity, skin symptoms, fatigue, and quality of life over time. The goal is to provide real-world evidence to help doctors, insurers, and patients make informed treatment decisions.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

10 to 50 patients will be enrolled per country from academic, community and hospital outpatient settings, to maximize the representation of the study population. This will result in approximately 180-200 patients in total allowing for sufficient precision when analysing the total cohort and to explore subgroups of interest.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Aged 18 years or older at study enrolment. 2. Fulfilled the 2019 EULAR/ACR criteria1 for SLE at the time of study entry. 3. Prescribed anifrolumab for their SLE treatment for the first time, according to approved country-specific label. 4. It is important to note that a physician decision to prescribe anifrolumab will need to occur prior to any study-related discussion. 5. In countries where prescription reimbursements are authorized on a case-by-case basis, authorization (ie, patient access to treatment) will be required for study entry. 6. Provided informed consent to participate in the study. 7. Willing and able to participate in all required study evaluations and procedures. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Currently participating in an anifrolumab early access/compassionate use program or an interventional clinical trial with an investigational product. 2. Previous exposure to anifrolumab as part of a clinical trial or early access program. 3. Documented diagnosis of severe or rapidly progressive Class III or IV glomerulonephritis requiring induction therapy (mycophenolate mofetil \[MMF\]/cyclophosphamide \[CYC\] + high dose steroids), isolated Class V lupus nephritis, or active severe or unstable neuropsychiatric lupus. 4. Any other condition which the investigator deems to limit a patient's ability to understand the informed consent or complete the PROs.
