Comparing Mescaline Sodium Enteric-coated Tablets vs Morte-mescaline in the Treatment of Adult Lupus Nephritis

July 5, 2023 updated by: Xiangya Hospital of Central South University

Comparing Efficacy and Safety of Mescaline Sodium Enteric-coated Tablets vs Morte-mescaline in the Treatment of Adult Lupus Nephritis: A Prospective, Multicenter,Real-world Study

The goal of this prospective, multicenter,real-world study is to To evaluate the efficacy and safety of mescaline sodium enteric-coated tablets versus morte-mescaline in the treatment of adult patients with lupus nephritis under real-life medical conditions.

The main question it aims to answer are: Is the efficacy of mescaline sodium enteric-coated tablets in the treatment of adult patients with lupus nephritis not inferior to morti-mescaline？ Participants will receive induction and maintenance treatment with mescaline sodium enteric-coated tablets and morte-mescaline.Then participants will be followed up at 60, 180, 270 and 540 days of treatment to assess the efficacy and safety of mescaline sodium enteric-coated tablets compared to morte-mescaline.
