Lupus nephritis, one of the most severe and therapeutically challenging manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), has been the target of drug development by La Jolla Pharmaceutical Company. Abetimus sodium, an example of the La Jolla Pharmaceutical Company's Tolerance Technology is an intravenously administered tetrameric oligonucleotide conjugate that safely reduces antidouble-stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA) antibodies. Given the importance of anti-dsDNA antibodies in the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis, the Phase II and III trials were designed to evaluate whether treatment with abetimus sodium could prolong the time to renal flare in cohorts of patients at high risk of nephritic flares.
