Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this open label, dose escalation phase 1b clinical trial is to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity and preliminary clinical efficacy of QLS4131 in subjects with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The main questions it aims to answer are: * The safety, tolerability and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of QLS4131 for Injection in participants with SLE. * The recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of QLS4131 for Injection in participants with SLE. Participants will be administered different target dose of QLS4131 for Injection only once. A step-up dosing approach will be implemented at high dose level as determined by the safety monitoring committee.

Who the study is looking for

  • Diagnosis of SLE according to the 2019 European League Against Rheumatism/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Classification Criteria at least 12 weeks or more prior to screening;
  • Participants with positive antinuclear antibody (ANA) (≥ 1:80), or positive anti-dsDNA antibody and/or positive anti-Sm antibody at screening;
  • Active SLE disease at screening, as demonstrated by a SLEDAI-2K \>= 8 at screening, or SLEDAI-2K \>= 6 at the presence of low complement and/or positive anti-dsDNA antibodies;
  • Current receipt of one or more of the following classes of standard therapies for the treatment of SLE at stable doses: oral corticosteroids, antimalarial agents, and conventional immunosuppressants:
    • For participants receiving an oral corticosteroid, treatment with ≤40 mg/day prednisone or equivalent, at a dose that has been stable for at least 4 weeks prior to first dose;
