Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Before any study-specific procedure, the appropriate written informed consent must be obtained;
- Men and women, between the ages of 18 and 70 years old, inclusive, at the time of randomization;
- Diagnosis of SLE as defined by the most recent ACR criteria, including a positive ANA at screening or documented positive ANA (the titer should be at least 1:80) in the past.
- SLE duration of at least six months, as diagnosed by a physician;
- Stable disease, defined as no change in SLE therapy within the previous 30 days; and, in the opinion of the investigator, no anticipated need for a change in SLE therapy will be required while the subject is enrolled in the study;
- Normal or clinically acceptable ECG (12-lead reporting ventricular rate and PR, QRS, QT, QTc) at screening and Day -1 based on the opinion of the investigator;
- Body mass index from 18 to 40 kg/m2 at screening;
- Able and willing to complete entire study according to study schedule.
- Immunizations up to date, with a minimum of tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis (td/Tdap), pneumococcal (polysaccharide) and influenza (during flu season) vaccinations, as determined by the Principal Investigator.
You may not qualify if:
- Positive serology for HIV antibodies, hepatitis B surface antigen or hepatitis C antibodies (confirmed by PCR or RIBA);
- Have had signs or symptoms of a viral, bacterial or fungal infection within 30 days of study randomization;
- Evidence of active or latent tuberculosis as assessed by PPD or Quantiferon testing at screening;
- Have donated blood or experienced a loss of blood \>500mL within 4 weeks of randomization;
- History of ethanol or drug abuse within the last one year prior to randomization;
- Evidence of significant renal insufficiency, defined by:
- The glomerular fitration rate \< 50 mL/min using the Cockroft and Gault equation;
- Evidence of liver disease (eg, serum ALT or AST \> 2x upper limit of normal);
- Total WBC \<3000 x 106/L;
- Neutrophil count \< 1500 x106/L
- Platelet count \<75,000 x 106/L
- Hemoglobin \<10g/dL
- Any disorder (including psychiatric), condition or clinically significant disease (other than a diagnosis of SLE) that would, by it progressive nature and/or severity, interfere with the study evaluation, completion and/or procedures in the medical judgment of the investigator. This includes any age related co-morbidites such as presence of congestive heart failure, angina, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, and malignancies (other than resected squamous and basal cell carcinoma of the skin).
- Presence or history of vasculitis (comprising internal organs or extremities or leading to peripheral neuropathy) within the last 3 years, presence or history of active CNS lupus (defined as seizure disorder, cerebral vascular accident, psychosis ascribed to SLE , encephalitis, meningitis, and myelitis) requiring therapy within the last 3 years;
- Uncontrolled hypertension (Blood pressure \> 150/95);
- +16 more criteria
