1. Anti-Smith (anti-Sm) antibodies (central laboratory or source verifiable history)
2. Anti-Sjögren's syndrome antibody A (Anti-SSA) (Ro)/Anti-Sjögren's syndrome antibody B (anti-SSB) (La) autoantibodies (central laboratory)
3. Historical evidence for anti-dsDNA antibodies
4. Anti-ribonucleoprotein (RNP) autoantibodies (central laboratory) d. Moderately to severely active defined as:
