New study tracks lupus kidney drug safety in daily use
NCT ID NCT07053891
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study monitors the safety and effectiveness of the drug LUPKYNIS (voclosporin) in 400 adults with lupus nephritis under real-world conditions. Participants take LUPKYNIS alongside standard medications like steroids. The goal is to track side effects and see how well the drug works outside of a controlled research setting.
