CLASI assesses by body surface area; points are given for presence of erythema, scale, hypertrophy, mucous membrane lesions, recent hair loss, and physician-observed alopecia
Measured: At week 48
Change From Baseline in the 40-Joint Count
Change from baseline in the following 40-joint count: phalangeal joints of the hand, second through fifth metacarpophalangeal joints of the hand, and individual metatarsophalangeal joints of the feet, Bilateral first metacarpophalangeal joints and shoulders. Each of 40 joints count is evaluated based upon the presence or absence of:
- Tender joint count (0 to 40)
- Swollen joint count (0 to 40)
- Tender and swollen joint count (0 to 40) A larger joint count indicates more severe disease.
Measured: Baseline and week 48
Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Number of participants with any grade adverse events (AEs) and any grade serious adverse events (SAEs). An adverse event (AE) including SAEs is defined as any new untoward medical occurrence or worsening of a preexisting medical condition in participants that do not necessarily have causal relationship with treatment
Measured: From first dose to 30 days post last dose (Up to 52 weeks)
Number of Participants With Laboratory Abnormalities in Specific Liver Tests
Number of participants with laboratory abnormalities in specific liver tests based on US conventional units. The potential drug-induced liver injury is defined by the presence of all of the following:
- Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) or Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) elevation > 3× Upper Limit of Normal (ULN)
- Total bilirubin > 2× ULN, without initial findings of cholestasis (elevated serum alkaline phosphatase)
- No other immediately apparent possible causes of AST or AST elevation and hyperbilirubinemia, including, but not limited to, viral hepatitis, preexisting chronic or acute liver disease, or the administration of other drug(s) known to be hepatotoxic
Measured: From first dose to 30 days post last dose (Up to 52 weeks)
Number of Participants With Abnormalities in Vital Signs
Number of participants with abnormalities in vital signs including heart rate, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure
Measured: From first dose to 30 days post last dose (Up to 52 weeks)
Number of Participants With Abnormalities in Electrocardiograms (ECGs)
Number of participants with abnormalities in electrocardiograms (ECGs) assessed by QTcF, PR interval, and QRS interval
Measured: From baseline to up to week 48

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing BMS-986165 in people with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, run by Bristol-Myers Squibb at 192 sites in 17 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Dec 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 192 sites in United States, Poland, Japan, Russia, Argentina and 12 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Sep 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Number of Participants Who Meet Response Criteria for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) Responder Index [SRI(4)] at Week 32 (time frame: At week 32). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03252587, which also lists 3 linked publications.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Dec 2022.
