Summary

This trial aims to see if two different medications, inebilizumab and blinatumomab, are safe and well-tolerated in adults with lupus and kidney inflammation.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with active, hard-to-treat systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and kidney inflammation. Participants must have certain antibodies in their blood, signs of kidney disease, and a recent biopsy confirming the diagnosis. People who haven't seen improvement in proteinuria or those newly diagnosed can join.
What is being tested?
The trial tests Inebilizumab's safety and how well it's tolerated when given to SLE patients with nephritis (Subprotocol A), as well as Blinatumomab administered under the skin for similar patients (Subprotocol B).
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include allergic reactions to medication components, infusion-related issues due to drug administration method, immune system changes leading to increased infection risk, and possible impact on liver or blood cell counts.
