Summary

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by substantial clinical burden-including organ damage, increased morbidity, and mortality-that often presents in young adulthood and disproportionately affects female patients. SAPHNELO™ (anifrolumab-fnia), a fully human IgG1 κ monoclonal antibody, is a novel therapeutic option approved for add-on treatment of moderate-to-severe SLE in the United States (US) on 30 July 2021 and in the European Union on 14 February 2022. To fulfill US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) post-marketing requirements for the evaluation of anifrolumab safety in pregnancy, additional evidence is needed to better understand the real-world drug utilization of anifrolumab in female patients of reproductive potential.

Anifrolumab

Anifrolumab is a human monoclonal antibody that binds to subunit 1 of the type 1 interferon receptor, which was developed based on the evidence supporting the role of type 1 interferon pathway in SLE. Clinical trial evidence from TULIP 1 and TULIP 2 have showed that monthly intravenous administration of anifrolumab led to a higher percentage of patients with a response, assessed with the British Isles Lupus Assessment Group-based Composite Lupus Assessment, compared with patients receiving placebo. Moreover, the phase II MUSE study showed that administration of anifrolumab resulted in substantially reduce disease activity, as measured by the SLE Responder Index, compared to patients receiving placebo. Anifrolumab was approved by the FDA and EMA in July 2021 and February 2022, respectively, for the treatment of adult patients with moderate to severe SLE who are receiving standard therapy.
