NCT ID NCT06527872
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study follows 300 adults with lupus nephritis who are already taking belimumab as part of their routine care. Researchers will track kidney function for up to 5 years to see how well the drug preserves renal health and prevents the need for dialysis or transplant. The goal is to understand belimumab's real-world effectiveness beyond clinical trials.
