About the Study

This research study is investigating a new oral medication that provides another way of treating CLE. The goal of the study is to understand if the drug can safely reduce skin symptoms associated with CLE.

Participation lasts up to 18 weeks, which includes screening, a treatment period, and follow-up visits. Because this is a randomized study, neither participants nor the study team will know who receives the study drug or a placebo.

Why Lupus Research Matters

Lupus is an autoimmune condition. This means the immune system becomes overactive and can attack healthy tissue.

In cutaneous lupus, the immune system primarily attacks the skin. Symptoms may include: rashes or skin lesions; red, scaly, or thickened areas of skin; skin sensitivity or discomfort; changes in skin color or scarring.

Some people with cutaneous lupus also have systemic lupus, which can affect other parts of the body such as the joints, kidneys, lungs, heart, eyes, or brain.

This study focuses on skin symptoms of lupus, whether or not other organs are affected.

Helping resarchers better understand lupus and how it affects the whole body may mean more effective treatment options in the future.
