NCT01261793
The primary objective of the study is to confirm the clinical efficacy of epratuzumab in the treatment of subjects with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).
NCT02260934
In this experimental study, researchers will try to find out if treatment of lupus nephritis with a combination of rituximab and cyclophosphamide (CTX), or a combination of rituximab and CTX followed by treatment with belimumab is safe and if this drug combination can block the immune system attacks.
NCT01946880
This trial seeks to describe the effect of withdrawal from mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) on risk of clinically significant disease reactivation in quiescent SLE patients who have been on long-term MMF therapy.
NCT02066311
Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the body's immune system attacks different parts of the body. SLE is characterized by inflammation that leads to tissue damage in different organ systems. Any organ system may be involved, including the skin, the joints, the kidneys, the nervous system, the heart, the lungs, and the blood. The exact cause of SLE is not known. Patients with SLE often have elevated levels of anti-double stranded DNA antibodies. These levels are often associated with disease flares and disease severity. These antibodies can bind to tissue leading to organ damage. Preventing these antibodies from binding to their targets may help decrease disease activity. Protease inhibitors are medications that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in the treatment of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). Nelfinavir (also called viracept) is one of these protease inhibitors. Separate from their anti-viral effects, protease inhibitors have been found to decrease inflammation. These medications have been shown to interfere with binding of anti-double stranded DNA antibodies to their targets and may decrease inflammation in SLE. This research study tests whether the protease inhibitor, nelfinavir, will decrease anti-double stranded DNA antibody binding and decrease disease activity.
NCT02119156
This study will assess the effect of a 24-week withdrawal followed by a 28-week reintroduction of belimumab 10 mg/kg plus standard of care medications in subjects with stable low systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease activity. Rebound phenomenon will be assessed for subjects who have permanently withdrawn from further belimumab treatment.
NCT03037203
This study is a 4-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending dose, 4-period crossover study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and PK of JZP-110 (75, 150, and 300 mg) in the treatment of excessive sleepiness in adult subjects with idiopathic PD.
NCT00137969
This is a Phase II/III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rituximab compared with placebo when combined with a single stable background immunosuppressive medication in subjects with moderate to severe systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The primary efficacy endpoint of the trial will be evaluated at 52 weeks.
NCT03427151
this study extension objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a 200-mcg dose every 4 weeks for 24 weeks of IPP-201101 in patients with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who had participated in the main study IP-005.
NCT02041091
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the amount of tabalumab in the blood after it is given by two different injection methods - A traditional syringe or a spring loaded syringe for 12 weeks. Participants may continue to receive study drug for up to 52 weeks.
NCT01953874
The aim of the study is to compare the effects of MV targeted ASV in addition to optimized medical therapy versus optimized medical therapy alone at 6 months in patients with acute decompensated HF. The study will also assess changes in functional parameters, biomarkers, quality of life (QOL), and sleep.
NCT02537028
The primary purpose of this Phase 1b double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), and biological effect of MSC2364447C administered for 4 weeks in systemic lupus erythematosus subjects (SLE).
NCT00410384
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and impact on quality of life of two different doses of belimumab administered in addition to standard therapy in subjects with active, autoantibody-positive systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease.
NCT02349061
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ustekinumab as measured by a reduction in disease activity for subjects with active Active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE - chronic disorder of connective tissue in which there can be skin rash, arthritis, kidney problems, and anemia, among other problems).
NCT01621802
The purpose of this study is to support licensure of GSK Biologicals' MMR vaccine (Priorix®) in the US by generating immunogenicity and safety data in contrast to the US standard of care, Merck's MMR vaccine (M-M-R®II), when given as a second dose to children four to six years of age.
NCT02533570
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of brentuximab vedotin in adults with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
NCT02953821
This trial is to study Acthar Gel in participants with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The doctor will assign eligible patients to one of two groups (like flipping a coin). Participants will receive the treatment assigned to their group for 24 weeks: * Acthar Gel * Placebo Gel, which looks like Acthar Gel, but has no medicine in it. The doctor or his staff will take measurements and ask questions to: * see how well the gel is working * see how safe it is for patients with SLE
NCT02725515
The purpose of this study is to determine the ability of XmAb5871 to maintain Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) disease activity improvement achieved by a brief course of disease-suppressing steroid therapy
NCT00381810
This is a Phase II/III open label, single-arm, multicenter, extension study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of rituximab when administered on a scheduled basis every 6 months over the course of 1 year with reassessment of response at 12 months. This study is open to participants previously enrolled in Genentech Study U2971g only.
NCT02034175
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of Somnarus diagnostic technology for diagnosis of sleep apnea in human subjects. This includes evaluation of Somnarus technology in Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and Central Sleep Apnea (CSA), including Cheyne - Stokes respiration (CSR).
NCT01597492
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of belimumab on immune response to pneumococcal vaccine in subjects with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE).
