Recruiting PHASE1 SLE - Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Tests treatment safety and results for SLE - Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Official title Safety and Efficacy Study of CC312 for Moderate to Severe SLE

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07177911

What this study is testing

What is CC312?

CC312 is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for sle - systemic lupus erythematosus.

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
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase I clinical trial featuring single and multiple ascending doses. It is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of CC312 in adult patients with moderate to severe systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
  • Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
