What the trial is, and whether it could suit you
Recent data indicate that Telitacicept is beneficial for lupus nephritis. Our goal is to determine whether Telitacicept is an effective and safe treatment, compared to standard-of-care Cyclophosphamide, for subclinical and clinical ILD in patients with early lupus.
