RINVOQ Continues to Show Promise for Lupus Treatment
AbbVie announced today that its drug therapy upadacitinib (also known as RINVOQ®) met its primary and secondary endpoints when administered alone or as a combination therapy for treatment of moderate to severe active lupus in individuals receiving standard disease therapies. The drug is advancing to Phase 3 clinical trial for treatment of lupus. RINVOQ is already approved for the treatment of other autoimmune conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and eczema.
In the SLEek Phase 2 trial of RINVOQ, the drug was given alone to trial participants in a 30-mg dose or as a combination therapy with elsubrutinib (60-mg dose) at week 24. At week 48, both groups exhibited improved active disease.
