About Lupus Nephritis and LUPKYNIS
Lupus nephritis (LN) is among the most severe and dangerous complications of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a chronic and complex autoimmune disease. LUPKYNIS is a calcineurin-inhibitor immunosuppressant indicated in combination with a background immunosuppressive therapy regimen for the treatment of adult patients with active LN.
