Summary

This study tests a new drug, SIM0278, in 60 adults with active lupus nephritis, a kidney disease caused by lupus. Participants will receive either SIM0278 or a placebo, and researchers will check if the drug helps improve kidney function over 52 weeks. The goal is to see if SIM0278 is safe and effective for controlling this serious condition.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Weight ≥ 40.0 kg 2. SLE was diagnosed according to 2019 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR) classification criteria. 3. Subjects must be receiving or willing to initiate induction therapy for LN. Induction therapy, defined as including high-dose glucocorticoids and MMF, should be initiated within 60 days or on the same day prior to baseline. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Previous or current nephropathy (except LN) that, in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with the LN assessment and interfere with the assessment of disease activity (e.g., diabetic nephropathy). The subject was unable or unwilling to provide written informed consent and/or to comply with study procedures. 2. Severe renal impairment: a) oliguria (defined as recorded urine volume \< 400 mL/24 h), or b) end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring dialysis or transplantation. 3. Previous induction therapy for MMF/MPS was considered by the investigator to have failed.
