This is a Phase IV, open-label, randomized trial to determine whether the combination of Belimumab (BEL) and Voclosporin (VCS), plus background therapy with Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF), improves the proportion of patients with proliferative lupus nephritis achieving complete renal response (CRR) compared to proportion of patients achieving CRR from recent clinical trials. This protocol will additionally determine whether combination therapy using Belimumab (BEL) and Voclosporin (VCS) facilitates rapid discontinuation of MMF.

Primary Objective:To study podocyte specific injury markers in African American Veterans with non-diabetic kidney disease(NDKD), on empagliflozin therapy. Primary Endpoint: Assess the effect of Empagliflozin on podocyte-specific proteins in exosomes isolated from subjects' urine, such as nephrin, podocalyxin and Wilms'Tumor (WT-1) protein.

Lupus nephritis is a chronic and life-threatening autoimmune cause of kidney disease that predominately impacts young people and can lead to kidney failure. Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors, including dapagliflozin, are known to improve outcomes for people with other causes of chronic kidney disease.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is highly prevalent in the state of Aguascalientes, Mexico, particularly among adolescents and young adults. Epidemiologic and histologic studies suggest that this burden is largely driven by reduced nephron endowment of prenatal origin, leading to compensatory glomerular hyperfiltration, adaptive podocytopathy, and persistent albuminuria at early stages of disease.

The goal of this open-label, non-randomized clinical trial is to determine what effects, if any, an FDA-approved drug class known as SGLT2 inhibitors (Canagliflozin or INVOKANA) has any protective effects on kidney function in Type 2 diabetes. We are looking for participants 18-80 years of age, who have had a clinical diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes for ≥ 3 years.

This is a prospective, open-label, single arm 3-year clinical study to describe the short-term and long-term efficacy and safety of belimumab in participants with autoantibody positive early SLE with ongoing disease activity despite stable first-line SLE therapy.

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, non-inferiority crossover study will evaluate the Herpes Zoster Sunbit (HZ/su) vaccine in SLE patients in order to evaluate safety and immunogenicity in patients with variable baseline clinical activities, ages and immunosuppressant exposures. The investigators hypothesize that HZ/su administration will be non-inferior to placebo with respect to the risk of moderate or severe SLE flare(s) occurring within 24 weeks of receiving the first dose of the assigned treatment.

This study aims to determine if GLP1RA is safe and tolerable in maintenance dialysis population, adherence, and feasibility of a larger definitive cardiovascular outcome trial in this population. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to either weekly subcutaneous semaglutide versus usual care and followed for 26 weeks.

Prospective Registry Investigating Maternal, Infant, and Lactation Outcomes in Anifrolumab Users (PRIMULA Lac) is a Post Marketing Requirements (PMR) study designed to fulfill the FDA post-marketing requirements. The study will collect data about the presence of anifrolumab in human breast milk and serum (maternal and infant) among lactating individuals who are receiving anifrolumab therapeutically via intravenous (IV) or subcutaneous (SC) administration and evaluate exposure and effects on the breastfed infant.
