Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Confirmed diagnosis of: · SLE with documented history of at least 4 of the 11 criteria for SLE as defined by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR). [NOTE: The 4 criteria do not have to be present at the time of Screening], OR · Lupus nephritis as the sole clinical criterion in the presence of ANA or anti-dsDNA antibodies. 2. Active lupus nephritis, as defined by meeting the 4 following criteria 3. Biopsy within 6 months prior to Screening visit indicating active glomerulonephritis WHO or ISN/RPS Class III or IV LN [excluding III (C), IV-S (C) and IV-G (C)]; subjects are permitted to have co-existing Class V. If no biopsy was performed within 6 months of Screening, a biopsy will need to be performed during the Screening period, after all other inclusion/exclusion criteria would have been verified. · UPCR ≥1 at Screening · Estimated eGFR >30 mL/min/1.73 m2 by Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) ·Active urinary sediment (presence of cellular casts (granular or red blood cell casts) or hematuria (>5 red blood cells per high power field))
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Severe renal impairment as defined by i.) Stage 4 CKD, or ii.) presence of oliguria (defined as a documented urine volume < 400 mL/24 hrs), or iii.) ESRD requiring dialysis or transplantation 2. Known intolerance/hypersensitivity to MPA (MMF or enteric-coated MPA sodium), or oral corticosteroids, or any component of the study treatment 3. Subjects having received any other biologic immunomodulatory therapy within 6 months prior to Screening, excluding belimumab where 3 months are acceptable
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Outcome name:The measurement will be thought: Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) within the normal range or no less than 85% of Baseline And 24-hour urine protein-tocreatinine ratio (UPCR) ≤0.5 mg/mg. Measure:Partial Renal Response (PRR) Timepoints:the primary endpoint analysis will be performed at Week 52, there will be a database lock when all subjects have completed Week 52 assessments ; Outcome name:Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) within the normal range or no less than 85% of Baseline and 24-hour urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR) ≤0.5 mg/mg Measure:Proportion of subjects achieving CRR (PRR) Timepoints:At week 52 | — |
