The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rapcabtagene autoleucel (administered once following lymphodepletion) versus Standard of Care (SOC) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with active, refractory lupus nephritis (LN).
A Phase 2, Adaptive, Randomized, Open-label, Assessor-blinded Active-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Rapcabtagene Autoleucel Versus Standard of Care in Patients Suffering From Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) With Active, Refractory Lupus Nephritis (LN).
This is a Phase 2, adaptive, two-year, randomized, assessor-blinded, active controlled study:
- Part A: Participants suffering from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with active, refractory LN will be randomized to Regimen 1, Regimen 2, or SOC.
- Part B: Participants suffering from SLE with active, refractory LN will be randomized to the selected regimen from Part A or SOC.
The study will consist of two periods:
- A screening period lasting up to 6 weeks, and
- A randomized treatment period and primary follow-up period lasting up to 104 weeks.
After end of study (EOS), participants who received rapcabtagene autoleucel infusion will enter a long-term follow-up (LTFU) period lasting up to 15 years after rapcabtagene autoleucel infusion. This LTFU will be described in a separate study protocol.
