About this study

Official title: Effectiveness, Tolerability, and Safety of Belimumab in Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Treated at the Spanish Departments of Internal Medicine

The BeliLES-GEAS project pretends to obtain an extensive data registry of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

The main objective is to create a national SLE patients registry treated with belimumab to describe effectiveness and safety of intravenous (IV) or subcutaneous (SC) belimumab in patients with active SLE treated in the Spanish departments of Internal Medicine in a real-life setting. This research project aspires to cover the vast majority (if not the whole) of SLE patients treated with belimumab in all of the Spanish Departments of Internal Medicine.

Read the detailed description

The goal of BeliLES-GEAS registry is to create an observational, non-randomized, non-controlled, national multicenter prospective and retrospective cohort with the aim to explore the real performance, with its lights and shadows, of Belimumab, either IV or SC, in a real-world population of lupus patients.

The intention is to perform a longer-term follow up, so that the measure of hard outcomes, such as improvement in mortality, could be feasible, but also reliable data regarding the safety profile could be recorded.

In order to achieve that, the following variables will be included: individual criteria as part of 2019 EULAR/ACR, SLICC or ACR 1997 classification criteria, gender, age at diagnosis, age at symptoms onset, duration of the disease, age at first Belimumab administration, mean time of follow-up prior to, and from Belimumab administration, complete medical history including other systemic autoimmune diseases, type/s of organ/systems affected by SLE, prior immunosuppressants received, number of flares 2 years prior Belimumab onset, number of medical visits, number of days of sick leave, type of disease, treatment and laboratory data. As a measure of damage, Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics-Damage Index (SLICC-DI) score will be calculated at baseline and at 12, 18, 24 months and yearly of follow-up. All centers will be requested to provide the SLICC-DI calculated annually of the last five years before the initiation of belimumab, when available.

The efficacy will be evaluated as time to reach any of the definition of remission included in the DORIS (definitions of remission in SLE) consensus, or LLDAs (lupus low disease activity state). Regarding the safety of Belimumab in real-world setting, it will be defined and evaluated by documenting adverse events.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Disease activity, clinical outcomes, and describe overall patterns of SLE care

    Study endpoints are clinically recognized (and objectively confirmed). Additional endpoints will be the identification of predictors of response in our patients

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, run by Grupo de Trabajo de Enfermedades Autoinmunes Sistémicas (GEAS) de la Fundación Española de Medicina at 1 site in Spain.

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 4 inclusion and 1 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Almudena Sanchez Ledesma (0034915357183, almudena.sanchez@shmedical.es), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease activity, clinical outcomes, and describe overall patterns of SLE care (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 17 Dec 2020.
