This novel therapy targets autoimmunity in lupus without harming B-cells. It offers a unique approach by selectively removing an inflammatory component, improving upon current treatments that can weaken the immune system. With lupus affecting over five million globally, this innovation could provide a more effective, safer option. Additionally, a biomarker for patient stratification enhances clinical trial targeting. This represents a significant advance in lupus treatment, promising better outcomes for patients.
