What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of rapcabtagene autoleucel in adults with active, treatment-resistant systemic lupus erythematosus SLE or lupus nephritis LN. This phase 2, open-label study focuses on patients who have not responded adequately to at least two prior therapies and meet specific criteria for disease activity and antibody presence. Participants will receive a single infusion of rapcabtagene autoleucel after lymphodepletion. The study includes monitoring at weeks 24 and 52 to assess how well the treatment works. This approach aims to understand if this biological therapy can improve lupus symptoms and kidney involvement. During the trial, participants will undergo regular evaluations including disease activity scores, kidney response, flare frequency, corticosteroid use, serological status, and fatigue levels. Researchers will closely monitor safety and long-term effects up to week 76, with follow-up visits to assess treatment durability and participant well-being.
