NCT ID NCT05859191

First seen May 01, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 11 times

Summary

This study looks at specific immune cells (iNKT cells and monocytes) in people with lupus to see how certain receptors on these cells change when the disease is active versus stable. Researchers will collect extra blood samples from 50 lupus patients during routine visits. The goal is to better understand what happens in the immune system during lupus flares, which could guide future research.
