Summary
This trial will look at how safe and effective YTB323 treatment is in patients with severe refractory systemic lupus erythematosus, and how the treatment affects the cells in their body.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-65 with severe, treatment-resistant systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Participants must meet specific SLE criteria and have certain autoantibodies. They should have tried at least two immunosuppressive therapies without success and may also have kidney, heart, lung or blood vessel involvement. Major organ functions need to be adequate.
What is being tested?
The study tests YTB323's safety, effectiveness, and how it affects immune cells in patients with severe refractory SLE. It aims to see if this new treatment can help where others failed.
What are the potential side effects?
While the exact side effects of YTB323 are not listed here, similar treatments often cause immune system changes that might lead to infections or reactions at the infusion site; organ inflammation; fatigue; and possible impacts on blood cell counts.
