In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a severe autoimmune disease in which patients often develop numerous autoantibodies (Abs). Unfortunately, none of the SLE specific Abs described so far (anti-DNA, -C1q, -nucleosome) are correlated enough to the disease activity to be used as a useful biomarker and reliably help in the therapeutic decision. Abs effector functions, including antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC), antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) and antibody-mediated complement activation, are conditioned by the structure of the crystallizable fragment (Fc) and especially the N-linked oligosaccharide structures attached to the asparagine-297 in the CH2 domain of the Fc region. It has been shown that the decrease in galactosylation, sialylation and fucolylation is generally associated with inflammatory function of circulating IgG whereas Abs with sialic ac
