Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Male or female participants between the ages of 18 (or the minimum country specific age of consent if >18) and 75 years, inclusive, at the time of signing the ICD.
  • Participants who are willing and able to comply with all scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, lifestyle considerations, and other study procedures.
  • Participants must be willing to avoid application of topical medications to the index lesions (4 index lesions should be identified at screening and baseline) that are identified for potential biopsies in the study until after Week 32.
  • Participants must have adequate IV access for administration of study intervention and on-study blood sampling.
  • Have a diagnosis of histologically confirmed active CLE or SLE with cutaneous manifestations despite treatment with standard of care medications for at least 12 weeks defined as a score of ≥8 on the CLASI-A, an erythema score of ≥2 in the CLASI and historical biopsy (report to be available to disease activity adjudicators) within the past 10 years with either: a. Subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus, or b. Discoid lupus erythematosus with at least one active discoid lesion (panniculitis, tumidus and chilblain lesions are excluded for the purposes of disease activity qualifying for eligibility and biopsy but are not exclusionary), or c. Both subacute and chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus
  • All participants may be currently receiving EITHER a stable dose of an immunosuppressant (MTX, AZA, 6-MP, leflunomide, mizoribine, MMF), or dapsone or colchicine with or without antimalarials and/or corticosteroids, OR anti-malarials (hydroxychloroquine, chloroquine or quinacrine) in combination with corticosteroids (dose of oral corticosteroids must be between 5 and 10 mg/day prednisone equivalent) or permitted topical agents.

You likely can't join if

  • Have another skin disorder that would confound the results of the skin biopsy or clinical assessments in the study.
  • Significant trauma or major surgery or blood transfusion within 5 weeks of screening, or scheduled to occur during the study, excluding diagnostic surgery.
  • History of alcohol or drug abuse in investigator’s opinion unless in full remission for greater than 12 months prior to first dose of study intervention.
  • History (single episode) of disseminated herpes zoster or disseminated herpes simplex, or recurrent (more than 1 episode within last 5 years) localized, dermatomal herpes zoster.
  • Participants who are currently vaping or using e-cigarettes.
  • Severe active CNS lupus requiring therapeutic intervention within 60 days of Day 1.
