RY_SW01 Cell Injection's preclinical research results have shown that the injection significantly improved urine biochemical indicators and tissue damage in two lupus nephritis animal models after MSC administration, with no occurrence of rejection and excellent safety. The mechanism of action of RY_SW01 Cell Injection is relatively clear, demonstrating favorable therapeutic effects in preclinical animal models. Compared to existing conventional therapies, it has the advantages of "convenient treatment and sustained efficacy." It may help reduce the variety and quantity of drugs administered to patients and the various side effects associated with drug treatment. In some cases, it may even lead to the discontinuation of immunosuppressive drugs, reducing mortality and disability rates while improving the quality of life for patients. Its unique advantages have the potential to fundamentally change the current clinical treatment landscape and offer promising prospects for clinical application.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disease that involve s many different organs and display a variable clinical course. The prevalence of SLE varies across gender, race/ethnicity, and geographic regions. SLE demonstrates a striking female predominance with a peak incidence of disease during the reproductive years. In adults, the female to male ratio is 10-15:1. Clinical features in individual patients can be quite variable and range from mild joint and skin involvement to severe, life-threatening internal organ disease. Constitutional symptoms, rash, mucosal ulcers, inflammatory polyarthritis, photosensitivity, and serositis are the most common clinical features of the disease . Major organ affection in SLE includes Neuropsychiatric involvement (cognitive impairment, depression, psychosis, seizures, stroke, demyelinating syndromes, peripheral neuropathy, etc.) and cardiopulmonary manifestations. Lupus nephritis is the most common of the potentially life-threatening manifestations . Renal involvement is common in SLE and is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. It is estimated that as many as 90% of patients with SLE will have pathologic evidence of renal involvement on biopsy, but clinically significant nephritis will develop in only 50%. Lupus involvement in the kidney manifests as urinary findings (proteinuria, hematuria, pathologic casts) with or without a rise in serum creatinine. The specific criteria listed for renal involvement are a urine protein > 500 mg/dL or red blood cell casts, Lupus nephritis is often confirmed by kidney biopsy, with the results showing one or more of the classes of lupus nephritis. The metabolic syndrome is a prevalent disorder which is defined by the presence of central obesity, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and disturbed glucose metabolism . It is known that Metabolic syndrome predisposes to cardiovascular disease (CVD) and consequently, to a rise in CVD morbidity and mortality. This syndrome plays a major role in the complex network of systemic pro-inflammatory and prothrombotic states involved in the development of CVD . Compared with patients without Metabolic syndrome, SLE patients from the multinational, multiethnic Systemic Lupus Erythematosus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC) cohort with the diagnosis of Metabolic syndrome were older, had a higher disease activity, an increased number of recent disease flares, and had accrued more organ damage . Mok et al report that Metabolic syndrome is significantly associated with new organ damage, vascular events, and mortality in patients with SLE .
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of voclosporin for up to an additional 12 months following completion of treatment in the AUR-VCS-2020-03 study (VOCAL) in adolescents with active lupus nephritis.
A Study of Anti-CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy for Subjects With Refractory Lupus Nephritis
The purpose of the registry and biorepository is to provide a mechanism to store clinical data, linked biospecimens and molecular data to support the conduct of future research on Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE), including Lupus Nephritis (LN).
The goal of this prospective, multicenter,real-world study is to To evaluate the efficacy and safety of mescaline sodium enteric-coated tablets versus morte-mescaline in the treatment of adult patients with lupus nephritis under real-life medical conditions. The main question it aims to answer are: Is the efficacy of mescaline sodium enteric-coated tablets in the treatment of adult patients with lupus nephritis not inferior to morti-mescaline？ Participants will receive induction and maintenance treatment with mescaline sodium enteric-coated tablets and morte-mescaline.Then participants will be followed up at 60, 180, 270 and 540 days of treatment to assess the efficacy and safety of mescaline sodium enteric-coated tablets compared to morte-mescaline.
Investigator-initiated, single-arm, open-label, single dose clinical study to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of CNCT19 in treatment of patients with refractory systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) presented with active lupus nephritis or active immune thrombocytopenia.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether mycophenolate mofetil(MMF) combined with tacrolimus(TAC) can maintain remission in patients with lupus nephritis (LN) who have reached treatment targets after steroid tapering. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - The efficacy, safety and tolerability of MMF combined with TAC regimen in the treatment of LN patients in the maintenance period. - The influence of low-dose steroid on carotid intima thickness (CIMT). - The omics and cell-free RNA (cfRNA) spectral differences related to lupus flare. - The differences in health economics between steroid tapering and steroid maintenance patients. Participants will be randomly assigned into 2 groups. In the steroid tapering group, participants will take MMF+TAC treatment without steroid for 1 year, and participants who stop steroid treatment without lupus flare will be randomly assigned to monotherapy with MMF or TAC. In the steroid maintenance group, participants will take MMF+TAC+steroid for 1 year, and participants without lupus flare will be randomly assigned to therapy with MMF + steroid or TAC + steroid.
The goal of this single-center, prospective clinical trial is to test the safety and efficacy of belimumab combined with multi-target therapy in the treatment of severe lupus nephritis. The main questions it aims to answer are: lupus nephritis complete remission rate at week 24, and the partial remission rate and safety assessments. Patients with severe lupus nephritis will be enrolled and received pulse methylprednisolone at a dose of 1.5 to 3.0g, followed by intravenous belimumab at a dose of 10mg per kilogram at weeks 2, 4, and 6, and every 4 weeks thereafter. Multitarget therapy will be also administered during the induction phase. Induction therapy will last for 24 weeks. Patients with severe lupus nephritis who only received multi-target therapy during the same period will be enrolled as the control group.
