NCT ID NCT00001372

Summary

This National Institutes of Health study aims to understand how lupus develops and progresses over time by observing patients and their family members. Researchers will monitor 2,250 participants with lupus or suspected lupus through regular check-ups, blood tests, and optional procedures like imaging or biopsies to track the disease. The study focuses on gathering knowledge about lupus patterns and genetic factors rather than testing new treatments.
