Study Arms (1)

Surovatamig

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive Surovatamig subcutaneously in one of three dosing regimens: once (Part 1), twice (Part 2), or three times (Part 3), depending on the study part.

Biological: Surovatamig

Interventions

Surovatamig BIOLOGICAL

Surovatamig is a bispecific T-cell engager administered subcutaneously. This is an open-label, dose-escalation study evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of Surovatamig in adult participants with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The study consists of up to three parts: Part 1 (SAD): Single ascending dose - participants receive one dose of Surovatamig. Part 2 (sSUD): Single step-up dosing - participants receive two doses. Part 3 (dSUD): Double step-up dosing - participants receive three doses. Participants are assigned to a study part based on protocol-defined criteria. The study includes follow-up for a minimum of 179 days post-first dose, with extended monitoring up to 12 months for certain participants.

(b) Severe lung or cardiac involvement. (c) History of, or current diagnosis of, catastrophic or severe APS (eg, diagnosis of an arterial or central/pulmonary venous clot) within 1 year prior to signing the ICF.
