Recent industry activity highlights strong clinical momentum. In June 2025, UCB Biopharma evaluated dapirolizumab pegol as an add-on therapy for moderate-to-severe disease. Novartis initiated a long-term safety study of ianalumab following the SIRIUS-SLE trials. AstraZeneca assessed subcutaneous anifrolumab in autoantibody-positive patients receiving standard care, while Merck studied MK-6194 to determine superiority versus placebo based on SRI-4 response at Week 28. AbbVie also launched a trial of upadacitinib for moderately to severely active SLE.
Epidemiology findings show Spain has the highest diagnosed prevalent population among EU4 and the UK, followed by the UK and Germany. Patients aged 40–59 represent roughly 40% of total cases across the 7MM, and about half of Spanish patients present with moderate disease.
Major companies active in the market include Biogen, Novartis, MorphoSys, Idorsia Pharmaceuticals, Viatris, RemeGen, UCB Pharma, Genentech, Bristol Myers Squibb, and AbbVie. Key pipeline therapies include obexelimab, telitacicept, DS-7011a, belimumab, sirolimus, ianalumab, ALPN-101, BMS-986165, and JMKX000189.

Among approved therapies, BENLYSTA (belimumab) from GlaxoSmithKline is a BLyS inhibitor monoclonal antibody that reduces survival of autoreactive B-cells and plasma cell differentiation. It was first FDA-approved in 2011 and remains a foundational biologic for SLE and lupus nephritis, including pediatric patients. SAPHNELO (anifrolumab) from AstraZeneca is a first-in-class antibody blocking type I interferon receptor signaling, now approved in more than 60 countries.
Emerging therapies continue to expand treatment options. Cenerimod from Idorsia/Viatris is an oral S1P1 receptor modulator that traps autoreactive lymphocytes in lymph nodes, reducing immune-mediated tissue damage; it currently remains in Phase III development. Litifilimab from Biogen targets BDCA2 on plasmacytoid dendritic cells to suppress interferon and inflammatory cytokines and is also in Phase III trials.

Systemic lupus erythematosus is a chronic autoimmune disorder in which immune responses attack multiple organs including skin, joints, kidneys, lungs, heart, blood cells, and the brain. Diagnosis combines clinical presentation with laboratory findings and classification criteria based on clinical and immunologic domains, requiring positive ANA testing and weighted scoring.
Asian pharmaceutical innovation is increasingly visible in lupus development. Daiichi Sankyo is advancing DS-7011a, a B-cell pathway immunomodulatory monoclonal antibody in Phase 1b/2 trials (NCT05638802), evaluating safety and biologic activity. Chugai Pharmaceutical is developing obinutuzumab, an anti-CD20 antibody causing pathogenic B-cell depletion, now in Phase 3 studies. Otsuka Pharmaceutical markets voclosporin for lupus nephritis in Japan, a calcineurin inhibitor that suppresses T-cell activation and showed improved renal response in Phase 3 trials.
In South Korea, HanAll Biopharma’s batoclimab (HL161) is an FcRn inhibitor in Phase 2 programs designed to lower pathogenic IgG autoantibodies. LG Chem Life Sciences is exploring early autoimmune nephrology therapies affecting renal inflammation. Taiwan-based TWi Biotechnology is developing AC-series oral immunomodulators affecting T-cell cytokine pathways, and AP Biosciences is working on FcRn antibodies in early clinical stages.
Across pipelines, most therapies target validated disease biology — B-cells, interferon signaling, autoantibody reduction, and T-cell activation. The report evaluates marketed and emerging therapies, unmet needs, competitive positioning, and market drivers and barriers across 2020–2034, along with competitive intelligence analyses and future market access considerations.
