The Reduction of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Flares :Study PLUS

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The main objective of study PLUS is to determine the potential benefits of individualized HCQ dosing schedules aimed at maintaining the whole-blood HCQ concentration above 1000 ng/ml

Clinical Trial Description

Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is a treatment which allows preventing Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) exacerbations.

HCQ can be measured in whole-blood by HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography).

Interindividual variability in blood HCQ concentrations is important and a correlation between HCQ level and clinical efficacy of HCQ has been demonstrated in SLE in a monocentric study of 143 unselected SLE patients.

The main objective of study PLUS is to determine the potential benefits of individualized HCQ dosing schedules aimed at maintaining the whole-blood HCQ concentration above 1000 ng/ml

The secondary objectives are:

- To define biological and clinical hallmarks present at M1 (month 1) which are predictor of SLE exacerbations in the next 6 month,

- To establish the parameters of HCQ pharmacokinetic model, by a study of population, using a "Bayésienne" approach.

- To study the influence of allelic variants of drug carriers and other genes in the interindividual variability of blood HCQ concentrations.

- To study the influence of the compliance in the blood HCQ concentration variability

- To study the relation between blood HCQ concentrations, SLE activity and quality of life

- To study the relation between blood HCQ concentrations, SLE activity and lipid profile of the patients

- To study the relation between ECG abnormalities and blood HCQ concentrations

- To constitute a bank of serum, a DNAbank, and a RNAbank to permit subsequent studies ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
