SLE is a chronic, life-threatening autoimmune disease that can damage any part of the body, including skin, joints and major organ systems. Lupus can occur at any age, but appears mostly in young women ages 15 to 45. Symptoms may include extreme fatigue, debilitating pain, swollen joints, unexplained fever, skin rash and kidney problems. Lupus can lead to arthritis, kidney failure, heart and lung inflammation, central nervous system abnormalities, inflammation of the blood vessels and blood disorders. Lupus is currently treated with steroids, immunosuppressants, anti-malarial compounds and other treatments, although these treatments are associated with many adverse events or toxicities.

BENLYSTA Targets SLE Patients with Significant Unmet Medical Need High dose steroids / immunosuppressants with or without disease activity Uncontrolled on first-line treatment Well controlled on first-line treatment BENLYSTA Primary Target: 200,000 Patients (U.S.) First Line: Low dose steroid / hydroxy- chloroquine


 

BENLYSTA (Belimumab) First Drug From Our Genomic Efforts Addressing an Important Unmet Medical Need in SLE BLyS and B cells are major factors in the pathogenesis of SLE Activity of BENLYSTA through the inhibition of BLyS increases the potential for autoreactive B cells to undergo the normal process of apoptosis (programmed cell death) BLyS inhibition has been shown in Phase 3 and other studies to reduce disease activity in SLE, and may also prove useful in treating a number of other autoimmune disorders associated with B-cell dysregulation and increased autoantibody production Vasculitis, kidney transplant, Sjogren's syndrome, Waldenstrom's disease, ITP (idiopathic thrombocytopenia purpura), and others Anti-BLyS therapy appears to leave secondary immunity intact Memory cells and long-lived plasma cells are not affected by BENLYSTA, which decreases the risk of infections associated with broad B cell depletion
