  • Subjects with unequivocally positive test for anti-nuclear antibody (ANA) and/or anti-ds-DNA serum antibody;
  • Be on a SLE standard treatment regimen (and remain stable) for a period of at least 30 days prior to Day 0.

Exclusion

  • Subjects with severe lupus kidney disease (defined by proteinuria \>6g/24h or serum creatinine \>2.5mg/dL or serum creatinine \>221μmol/L) or active nephritis requiring prohibited medications, or subjects requiring hemodialysis or prednisone (or its equivalent)≥100mg/d for a period of ≥14 days within 8 weeks of Day 0;
  • Central nervous system (CNS) disease associated with lupus or not \[including seizures, psychosis, organic brain syndrome, cerebrovascular accident (CVA), encephalitis, CNS angiitis\] within 8 weeks prior to the screening visit;
  • Laboratory abnormalities including, but not limited to the following:
  • ALT/AST≥2×upper limit of normal (ULN);
  • endogenous creatinine clearance rate\<30 mL/min;
  • white blood cell count\<2.5×10\^9/L;
  • hemoglobin\<85 g/L;
  • platelet count\<50×10\^9/L;
  • Active hepatitis or a history of severe liver disease at the screening visit. Positive test for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or anti-hepatitis C virus antibodies (HCVAb). If anti-HBcAb result is positive while HBsAg result is negative, hepatitis B virus (HBV)-(DNA) test will be performed. If HBV-DNA result is negative, the patient is eligible;

  • Subjects who received live vaccine within 28 days of Day 0;
  • Participation in any other investigational study drug trial in the past 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever was longer, prior to Day 0. Subjects who participated in a clinical trial on B-cell-targeted drug, or tumor necrosis factor inhibitor, or interleukin receptor blocker within 12 months prior to Day 0 would be excluded;
  • Subjects who received other B-cell targeted drugs, such as Belimumab, rituximab or Epratuzumab within 12 months prior to Day 0;
  • Subjects who received tumor necrosis factor inhibitors, interleukin receptor blockers within 12 months prior to Day 0;
  • Subjects who received intravenous immune globulin (IVIG), or high dose prednisone or its equivalents (≥100mg/d) for a period of ≥ 14 days, or plasma exchange within 28 days prior to Day 0;
  • Subjects who received IL-2, Thalidomide, Tripterygium wilfordii or Chinese medicinal preparations containing Tripterygium wilfordii within 28 days prior to Day 0;
  • Subjects with active infections (herpes zoster, HIV infection, active tuberculosis, etc.) at the screening visit;
  • Subjects with depression or suicidal thoughts;
  • Any condition or circumstance that, in the opinion of the investigator, may compromise the patient's ability to comply with the study protocol..
