Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* Kidney biopsy result within 2 years prior to screening indicating Class III, IV-S, IV-G (alone or in combination with Class V), or Class V LN with a doubling or greater increase of UPCR within the last 6 months to a minimum of ≥1.5 mg/mg for Class III/IV or to a minimum of ≥2 mg/mg for Class V at screening. Biopsy results over 6 months prior to screening must be reviewed with a medical monitor to confirm eligibility.
OR
* Kidney biopsy result within 6 months prior to screening indicating Class III, IV-S or IV-G (alone or in combination with Class V) LN with a UPCR of ≥1.5 mg/mg at screening.
OR
* Kidney biopsy result within 6 months prior to screening indicating Class V LN and a UPCR of ≥2 mg/mg at screening.
* Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test at baseline.
Exclusion Criteria
* Current or medical history of:
* Congenital or acquired immunodeficiency.
* In the opinion of the Investigator, clinically significant drug or alcohol abuse within 2 years prior to screening.
* Malignancy within 5 years of screening, with the exception of basal and squamous cell carcinomas treated by complete excision.
* Lymphoproliferative disease or previous total lymphoid irradiation.
* Severe viral infection or known HIV infection.
* Active tuberculosis (TB), or known history of TB/evidence of old TB if not taking prophylaxis with isoniazid.
* Other known clinically significant active medical conditions, such as:
* Severe cardiovascular disease, liver dysfunction or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or asthma requiring oral steroids or any other overlapping autoimmune condition for which the condition or the treatment of the condition may affect the study assessments or outcomes.
