Synergy Trial Summary

This trial is studying a new drug to treat lupus. The drug will be tested for safety, how well it works, and what side effects it may cause.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-65 with moderate to severe active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can join this trial. They must have had SLE for at least 6 months, show certain antibodies in their blood tests, and have stable lupus medications before screening. Active disease is required as shown by specific scores on the SLEDAI test. Participants or their partners capable of pregnancy must use effective birth control.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing ALPN-101 (acazicolcept), a potential new treatment for SLE against a placebo. It's a Phase 2 trial that aims to assess how safe and effective ALPN-101 is, how it affects the immune system, its side effects, and how the body processes it.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed here, participants may experience reactions related to the immune system due to ALPN-101 since it targets inflammation pathways involved in lupus. Side effects could include infusion-related reactions and possible impacts on infection risk.
