简要总结
Phase 3 Study of Anifrolumab in Adult Patients with Active Proliferative Lupus Nephritis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anifrolumab as compared with placebo. The primary and secondary objectives: 1 To evaluate the efficacy of anifrolumab compared with placebo as added to SOC in active proliferative LN on the proportion of participants achieving CRR 2. To evaluate the effect of anifrolumab as compared with placebo as added to SOC on: Sustained OCS reduction, Onset of sustained CRR, Proteinuria, Onset of renal-related event or death through Week 52, Onset of renal-related event or death through Week 104 along with the other efficacy and safety objectives. A total of 360 participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive anifrolumab or placebo and includes:
Screening Period: Up to 30 days
Treatment Period: 104-week double-blind treatment period with:
Study intervention administration (anifrolumab or placebo) IV Q4W from Week 0 to Week 100 for a total of 26 doses
Follow-up Period: Up to 8 weeks after last efficacy assessment at Week 104 (ie, 12 weeks after last dose of study intervention)
