The combination of anti-dsDNA and anti-SSA/Ro60 serotype may help to foretell the patient’s renal response to belimumab. Investigators here aimed to explore the effectiveness of belimumab on active LN, exploring predictors, including serological biomarkers, of renal response to belimumab in a real-world setting.

This multicentre, real-world study of 122 patients provided further evidence of the effectiveness of belimumab as an add-on therapy for the Chinese LN population.
