Overview

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and drug levels of CC-97540 in participants with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) including lupus nephritis with inadequate response to glucocorticoids and at least 2 immunosuppressants.

Eligibility

Key Inclusion Criteria

  • Participants must meet EULAR/ACR 2019 criteria for SLE.
  • Participants must have an inadequate response to appropriate doses of glucocorticoids and ≥ 2 immunosuppressant therapies, used for at least 3 months.
  • Participants must have active disease when signing ICF.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants must not have other diseases, conditions, or treatments that may confound interpretation of the effects of CC-97540 in SLE.
  • Uncontrolled or clinically significant cardiovascular conditions or CNS pathology participants must not have prior history of malignancies or lymphoproliferative disease, unless the participant has been free of the disease for ≥ 2 years, except for some non-invasive malignancies.
  • IOCBP who are pregnant, nursing, or breastfeeding, or who intend to become pregnant during participation in the study.
  • Participants must not have prior treatment with CAR T cell therapy, genetically modified T cell therapy, or stem cell transplant. Washout periods may be required.
  • Participants must not have received live vaccines within 6 weeks before CC-97540 administration.
  • Participant must not have inadequate organ function.
  • Other protocol defined inclusion/exclusion criteria apply.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
