Summary
This study offers continued treatment with deucravacitinib for people with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or related skin lupus who finished earlier trials. It aims to keep the disease under control by providing ongoing access to the medication. Only 35 participants are being enrolled, all of whom have already shown benefit from the drug.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide a long-term treatment option to control lupus symptoms and reduce flare-ups.
- What could go wrong
