Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 22 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is an External control arm study to generate evidence on the comparative effect of anifrolumab plus Standard of Care in TULIP versus Real World Standard of Care on organ damage in adult patients with moderately to severely active Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Patients who initiated 300 mg of anifrolumab in TULIP-1 or -2 will be indexed at the date of initiating anifrolumab and will be followed up until the earliest occurrence of death, loss to follow-up, trial dis-enrollment, or week 208 assessment (in LTE study).
