Targeting B cells and plasma cells in lupus with a dual-action antibody
Official title: Phase Ib Clinical Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, Preliminary Efficacy, Pharmacokinetics, and Immunogenicity of F182112 in Patients With Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Run by Shandong New Time Pharmaceutical Co., LTD · NCT07829614 · Data updated 2026-11-12
A new injectable therapy (F182112) will be tested in adults with systemic lupus erythematosus to see if it can help by hitting both CD3 on immune cells and BCMA on B cells and plasma cells.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 18–65 with diagnosed SLE for at least 12 weeks who can consent and have not received BCMA-targeted therapy or recent B-cell/plasma cell–depleting treatments.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have already received BCMA-targeted therapy or recent B-cell/plasma cell depletion may not benefit and could be excluded from participation.

What this trial studies
This is a Phase Ib, interventional study evaluating a recombinant bispecific antibody called F182112 that simultaneously binds CD3 and BCMA. The approach aims to direct the body's immune system to reduce B cells and plasma cells that express BCMA, potentially reducing autoantibody production in lupus. Eligible participants are adults 18–65 with SLE diagnosed for at least 12 weeks, who can provide informed consent. Exclusions include prior BCMA-targeted therapy or recent B-cell or plasma cell–depleting treatments. The trial is sponsored by Shandong New Time Pharmaceutical Co., with Renji Hospital and Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine as locations.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants could experience reduced disease activity through targeted depletion of pathogenic B cells and plasma cells.
How similar studies have gone: Details on prior similar approaches in autoimmune diseases are limited, making this investigation relatively novel in lupus.
