About This Lupus Nephritis (LN) Study in New York

ONT01 is a drug that is being studied for the treatment of Lupus Nephritis (LN) and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and is not approved by the FDA. The purpose of this study is to better determine whether ONT01 is safe and tolerated by people with lupus nephritis or SLE. The study also looks at how the administration of ONT01 in combination with widely used treatments given for lupus, including the medication mycophenolate mofetil and others, can improve symptoms of lupus. A total of 61 participants will be enrolled in this study.

Sponsor: Hospital for Special Surgery, New York

Active non-renal SLE is defined as having a SLEDAI of 6 or greater (with at least 1 non-renal clinical domain) OR Active nephritis defined as having a no or partial response after initial induction and maintenance therapy with mycophenolate mofetil (and other standard of care therapies) for 3 months or more for class III, IV, IV, V (or combination) nephritis.
Active LN is defined as follows: a. kidney biopsy showing Class III, IV, V, III+V, or IV+V, within 1 year from screening, AND b. 24-hour urine protein/creatinine ratio \>=1g/g at screening, AND c. absence of partial renal response (PRR)
Partial renal response (PRR) is defined as a. 24-hour UPCR improved by \>=25% after 3 months from the start of induction standard of care (SOC) therapy (baseline), or \>= 50% after 6 months from the induction therapy (UPCR), AND b. 24-hour UPCR\<2g/g if baseline was \< 3g/g, OR \< 3g/g if baseline at induction was \>= 3g/g. AND d. EGFR\>=60 ml/min/1.73 M2 or no less than 80% of Baseline eGFR (at induction) AND e.
