OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the safety and efficacy of synthetic dehydroepiandrosterone (GL701) in women with prednisone-dependent systemic lupus erythematosus.

II. Describe the pharmacokinetics of GL701.

PROTOCOL OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind study. Patients are stratified by participating institution.

Patients are randomly assigned to 1 of 2 doses of oral dehydroepiandrosterone or placebo, administered daily for a minimum of 7 months. A prednisone taper is attempted each month in patients with stable or improving disease.
