Between 31 and 60 percent of SLE patients live with LN<sup>1<\/sup> and in the United States, Horizon estimates that approximately 60,000 patients with LN are appropriate for treatment with novel therapies, including biologics. The disease is more prevalent in certain ethnic groups such as African American, Asian and Hispanic populations.<sup>2<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cFor individuals living with LN, evaluating a safe and effective treatment that can prevent worsening kidney damage and decrease the risk of kidney failure and end-stage renal disease is a key objective,\u201d said Kenneth Kalunian, M.D., professor of medicine, division of rheumatology, allergy and immunology, University of California, San Diego. \u201cCurrent treatment regimens include intensive immunosuppressive therapy that can be associated with several adverse events. There is a need to identify a more specific medicine for those with proliferative LN.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nApproximately 210 participants who meet trial eligibility are expected to be enrolled. The primary endpoint is the proportion of participants who achieve a sustained complete renal response (CRR) between Week 48 and Week 52. This is a composite endpoint defined as a reduction in proteinuria and preservation or improvement of renal function.<sup>3 <\/sup>Secondary endpoints include the proportion of participants achieving overall renal response (ORR), which is defined as CRR combined with partial renal response (PRR). To evaluate the steroid-sparing effects of daxdilimab, the proportion of participants who are able to effectively taper oral corticosteroids by Week 24 and maintain a low dose through Week 52 will also be evaluated.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cLN is a serious manifestation of SLE and requires urgent treatment to avoid chronic kidney disease, dialysis or kidney transplantation,\u201d said Theresa Podrebarac, M.D., M.Sc., senior vice president, clinical development, Horizon. \u201cEarly studies point to the role of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) and type 1 interferons in its pathogenesis. As a part of our commitment to addressing better treatment options for autoimmune diseases, we are currently evaluating daxdilimab in SLE as well as a variety of other conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>About Daxdilimab<\/b><\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.horizontherapeutics.com%2FMedia-Center%2FVideo-Library%2FDaxdilimab-Mechanism-of-Action&amp;esheet=53391708&amp;newsitemid=20230502005802&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=Daxdilimab&amp;index=1&amp;md5=15f4ee0d36340b4c233985723d35d451\">Daxdilimab<\/a> is an anti-ILT7 human monoclonal antibody that depletes certain dendritic cells.
