Filter by:Evaluate the activity and safety of oral tofacitinib in adult patients with discoid lupus erythematosus with or without concurrent SLE.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Etanercept which is given through intradermal injection is effective in the treatment of discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE). The investigators also would like to develop new tests to measure skin inflammation by scanning the affected skin using optical coherence tomography (OCT), thermography and laser doppler imaging (LDI) and taking photographs of the rash (to be done before and after treatment). If the findings from these new tests are similar to the ones from taking a sample of skin (biopsy), then the latter (which is an invasive test) can be avoided.
The primary purpose of this Phase 1 study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and effect of 3 different doses of Treg therapy in adults with skin (cutaneous) involvement of their lupus. Targeting cutaneous disease offers the ability to control background therapy, readily detect clinical effects, and perform research analyses not only in blood but also skin. Safety, disease activity, and mechanism of Tregs will be evaluated. The intent is to support dose selection for a future larger efficacy trial in lupus.
The main objectives of the study are: To determine if RNA recovery from tape harvesting allows for the identification of a disease gene signature (e.g., interferon [IFN] signature for lupus) or other biomarkers that may differentiate affected from normal or unaffected skin; To determine if the lupus gene signature is differentially expressed in the epidermis from active discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) or subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE) lesions when compared with unaffected skin from the same participants and from the skin of healthy volunteers (HVs); To determine if the atopic dermatitis (AD) gene signature is differentially expressed in the epidermis from active AD lesions when compared with unaffected skin from the same participants and from the skin of HVs; and To correlate the levels of transcripts of targeted genes in the skin by tape harvesting with those obtained from the blood.
The purpose of this study is to obtain skin, blood, and urine samples from patients with active cutaneous lupus lesions and from healthy participants.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the clinical and molecular profiles of patients with cutaneous lupus.
Efficacy and Safety of Belimumab in a Subgroup of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) Patients with Higher Disease Activity (anti-dsDNA positive and low complement): A Pooled Analysis of the HGS1006-C1056 (BLISS-52) and HGS1006-C1057 (BLISS-76) Studies
Milatuzumab will be given subcutaneously at different dose levels once (depending on the dose level) for 4 weeks to determine if milatuzumab helps to control lupus (SLE).
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, efficacy and tolerability of topical R333 ointment in Discoid Lupus Erythematosus (DLE) and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) patients with active discoid lesions.
The purpose of the study is to assess if CC-930 is safe and tolerable in treating subjects with Discoid Lupus Erythematosus. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics will also be evaluated.
