Learning objective: After reading this article, learners will be able to cite a new development in the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus and lupus nephritis.


On December 2, 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted fast track designation to expedite clinical development and regulatory review timelines for SC291, a hypoimmune-modified CD19-directed allogeneic chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, in relapsed/refractory (R/R) systemic lupus erythematosus, including extrarenal lupus and lupus nephritis.1

SC291 is currently being investigated in the phase I GLEAM trial (NCT06294236) to evaluate its safety and tolerability, preliminary clinical response, cellular kinetics, and exploratory analyses in patients with severe R/R B-cell mediated autoimmune diseases.1,2 Initial clinical data is anticipated to be reported in 2025.1,2
