Recruiting NA Lupus Nephritis

New treatment option for Lupus Nephritis

Official title Refractory ANCA Associated Vasculitis and Lupus Nephritis Treated With BCMA-targeting CAR-T Cells

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06277427

What this study is testing

What is PRG-1801 (CAR-T against BCMA)?

PRG-1801 (CAR-T against BCMA) is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for lupus nephritis.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
Lupus nephritis (LN) and ANCA-associated vasculitis are severe autoimmune diseases, which may lead to the death of patients, particularly when they are refractory to the conventional therapeutic agents. Based on the current knowledge, the autoantibodies against self-antigens may exert important pathological roles in the pathogenesis of both LN and ANCA-associated vasculitis, of which the origins are primarily plasmablasts and plasma cells.

A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
