Systemic lupus erythematosus is a complex autoimmune disease marked by dysregulated immune responses, multi-organ inflammation, and unpredictable disease flares. Despite advances in standard-of-care therapies, significant unmet needs persist, including durable disease remission, organ protection, and tailored treatments for diverse patient subpopulations. As SLE affects predominantly women of childbearing age and shows higher prevalence in certain ethnic groups, personalized medicine approaches have become critical for optimizing patient outcomes.
According to DelveInsight’s analysis, the systemic lupus erythematosus treatment pipeline has entered a new era of innovation, driven by breakthrough mechanisms, regulatory designations, and robust clinical programs from leading biopharmaceutical companies.
DelveInsight report provides therapeutic assessment segregated by various parameters, including clinical trial phase, route of administration (oral, intravenous, subcutaneous, parenteral, topical), and molecule type (recombinant fusion proteins, small molecules, monoclonal antibodies, peptides, polymers, gene therapy). This comprehensive categorization enables stakeholders to understand the diverse therapeutic approaches being pursued.

BIIB059 (Litifilimab) is a humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody developed by Biogen and is in phase III. This therapy specifically targets BDCA2 on plasmacytoid dendritic cells and is intended for treating moderate-to-severe systemic lupus erythematosus. Additionally, Cenerimod is an oral selective S1P1 modulator from Idorsia Pharmaceuticals. It aims to reduce circulating lymphocytes and is in pivotal Phase III development to improve disease control and decrease SLE flares.
RINVOQ, a fixed-dose combination therapy from AbbVie comprising the Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor elsubrutinib and the Janus kinase inhibitor upadacitinib, is exploring synergistic immune modulation in SLE and other autoimmune indications in Phase III studies, with results anticipated in 2026. Arscimed, developed by BioSenic, utilizes arsenic trioxide to target upstream immune activation and is also under Phase II evaluation for refractory SLE, addressing root pathogenic cascades. Furthermore, Mosunetuzumab, a bispecific antibody by Roche that engages CD20 on B cells and CD3 on T cells, is advancing through Phase I trials in SLE by redirecting T-cell cytotoxicity against autoreactive B cells.
These lupus pipeline therapies underscore the emerging trends within the forecast period, with the next generation of targeted therapies addressing the complex pathophysiology of systemic lupus erythematosus.
Adicet Bio achieved significant regulatory milestones in 2025 with its allogeneic gamma delta CAR-T cell therapy ADI-001 receiving multiple FDA Fast Track designations in February 2025 for the treatment of refractory systemic lupus erythematosus with extrarenal involvement. This followed an earlier Fast Track designation granted in June 2024 for relapsed/refractory class III or class IV lupus nephritis.
The dual Fast Track designations underscore the urgent need for new therapies in lupus, particularly for patients with refractory disease. ADI-001 targets CD20 and is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial across six autoimmune indications, including SLE, systemic sclerosis, and idiopathic inflammatory myopathy
Furthermore, Allogene Therapeutics announced in April 2025 that their investigational dual-targeted CD19/CD70 allogeneic CAR-T therapy ALLO-329 received three Fast Track designations from the FDA for the treatment of adult patients with autoimmune diseases.
In April 2025, Calibr-Skaggs Institute received FDA clearance for its investigational new drug application to study switchable CAR-T therapy (CLBR001 + SWI019) in patients with autoimmune conditions.
In March 2025, the FDA accepted Roche’s supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for obinutuzumab (Gazyva/Gazyvaro) for the treatment of lupus nephritis, with a decision on approval expected by October 2025.
These recent developments highlight the major emerging trends in this autoimmune disease treatment landscape, including chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy, small molecule treatments for lupus, CAR-NK therapy for lupus, and combined impediment of human plasmacytoid dendritic cell activity.

Looking ahead, the systemic lupus erythematosus pipeline is expected to witness continued innovation driven by enhanced understanding of disease mechanisms, biomarker development, and a highly competitive landscape. While significant progress has been made with targeted immunotherapies, challenges remain in addressing complete disease remission, preventing flares, and improving treatment accessibility across diverse patient populations. As research continues and awareness grows, the systemic lupus erythematosus pipeline is poised for remarkable expansion and therapeutic innovation.
