Summary

This study tests anifrolumab, a biologic drug given as a shot, for adults with chronic or subacute lupus skin rashes that didn't get better with antimalarial drugs. About 306 participants will receive either anifrolumab or a placebo to see if the drug can reduce skin disease activity by 70% or more. The goal is to find a new treatment option for people with this painful and visible condition.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Anifrolumab (a biologic drug given as a shot under the skin)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a new treatment option for people with lupus-related skin rashes that don't respond to standard antimalarial drugs.
What could go wrong
This is a Phase 3 trial, but results are not yet available. Anifrolumab may not work better than placebo, and side effects like infections are possible.
