Lupus kidney drug trial halted midway
NCT ID NCT05781750
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a drug called zetomipzomib for people with active lupus nephritis, a kidney disease caused by lupus. The goal was to see if the drug could improve kidney function better than a placebo over 52 weeks. The trial was terminated early, so results are limited. Participants had to meet specific kidney and blood health criteria to join.
