Adolescent Lupus Nephritis Clinical Trial
Official title:
An Open-Label Extension Study to Assess the Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Voclosporin in Adolescent Subjects With Lupus Nephritis
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.
This is a 12 month, prospective, multi-center, long-term, open-label extension study of voclosporin in addition to background standard of care with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and oral steroids. Subjects completing participation and treatment with study drug (voclosporin/placebo) of the VOCAL Study (AUR-VCS-2020-03 ; NCT05288855) and meeting all eligibility criteria will continue to receive open-label treatment with voclosporin for approximately 12 months giving a total study treatment duration of 18 months from the start of VOCAL. Subjects completing treatment in Group 2 of the VOCAL study who were receiving placebo will switch to receive open-label voclosporin initially at the same number of capsules as was being administered at the End of Study (EOS) Visit in VOCAL. All subjects will continue to receive background therapy of MMF and oral corticosteroids starting at the same dose as at completion of the VOCAL study. When clinically indicated, subjects are permitted to be titrated off oral corticosteroids. ;
