- •High dose prednisone or equivalent (>1.5 mg/kilogram/day) or any intramuscular or intravenous steroid injection.
- •Have received a live or live-attenuated vaccine within 30 days of Day
- •Have active central nervous system (CNS) lupus (including seizures, psychosis, organic brain syndrome, cerebrovascular accident [CVA], cerebritis or CNS vasculitis) requiring therapeutic intervention within 60 days of Day
- •Have required renal replacement therapy (e.g., hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis) within 90 days of Day 0 or be currently on renal replacement therapy.
- •Participation in an interventional clinical study either concurrently or within 6 months of screening. Participation in an observational study may be permitted.
- •Have a historically positive test or test positive at screening for Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of Participants With Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs) Through Week 52
时间窗: Up to Week 52
An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of a study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. AESIs included malignancies, post-infusion systemic or hypersensitivity reactions, infections (including serious infections of special interest), and depression, suicide, or self-injury. Infections of special interest included opportunistic infections (OI), herpes zoster (HZ), tuberculosis (TB), and sepsis. Number of participants with AESIs as identified by custom Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) query has been reported.
Number of Participants With Greater Than Equal to (>=) 4 Points Reduction From Baseline to Week 52 in Safety of Estrogen in Lupus National Assessment - Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SELENA-SLEDAI) Score
时间窗: Baseline (Day 0) and Week 52
The SELENA-SLEDAI score is a cumulative and weighted index for assessing SLE disease activity in participants with SLE. It consists of 24 disease descriptors related to signs and symptoms, laboratory tests, and physician's assessment across 9 organ systems. Each descriptor is assigned a weighted score (8 descriptors with a weight of 8 each, 6 descriptors with a weight of 4 each, 7 descriptors with a weight of 2 each, and 3 descriptors with a weight of 1 each) which is added up if the descriptor is observed during a visit or within the preceding 10 days. The total score ranges from 0 (no disease activity) to 105 (all 24 descriptors present simultaneously). A higher score indicates a more significant degree of disease activity. Baseline was defined as the latest pre-dose assessment with a non-missing value, including those from unscheduled visits. Number of participants with a decrease of 4 points or more in the score at Week 52 compared to their Baseline score is presented.
