简要总结
Phase II Double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized treatment trial with two arms: one SIROLIMUS arm with 92 patients and one placebo arm with 92 patients. The safety and therapeutic efficacy of SIROLIMUS will be determined within a dosage range of 1 mg/day to 4 mg/day, which will be titrated to tolerance during an initial 3-month open label period, relative to placebo in SLE patients over 12 months followed by a 1-month washout. The proposed study design, known as an enriched enrollment randomized withdrawal (EERW), has major advantages that (1) only people who tolerate SIROLIMUS are randomized, potentially reducing the percentage of dropouts in the randomized phase and (2) it allows participants to use an individualized dosage of study medication, which mimics clinical practice in terms of how SIROLIMUS would be administered. Healthy subjects receive no drugs and serve as controls for in vitro studies.

排除标准
- •Acute SLE flare threatening vital organs;
- •Pregnant or lactating;
- •Female subjects who are planning to become pregnant during the study or within 3 months after last dosing or male subjects who are considering fathering a child within 3 months after last dosing;
- •Abnormal laboratory test results: hemoglobin ≤ 8 g/L (8 g/dL), platelet count ≤ 70 x 109/L (70,000 cells/mm³), white blood cell count ≤ 2.0 x 109/L (2,000 cells/mm³), neutrophils: ≤ 1.5 X 109/L, proteinuria > 3 g/day measured by 24 hour collection or spot urine protein to creatinine ratio of >3;
