Funded Activity Summary

There has been no significant breakthrough in the treatment of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) for over 50 years. Treatment continues to rely on non-specific immunosuppressant drugs and glucocorticoids (GC, or ‘steroids’), and the impact on patients includes high mortality and poor quality of life. In this proposal, I will validate novel endpoints which will break the impasse in SLE drug development and develop tools for minimising GC use in SLE.
