The lupus nephritis market has been comprehensively analyzed in this report titled "Lupus Nephritis Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034". Lupus nephritis refers to a complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease affecting various parts of the body, including the kidneys. It occurs when the immune system accidentally attacks the kidneys, causing inflammation and tissue damage. The general symptoms of the ailment are fever, edema (mainly in the legs, feet, or ankles), joint and muscle pain, malar rash, foamy urine, etc. Some people may also experience fatigue, weight gain, and shortness of breath. In severe cases, these indications worsen over time and lead to kidney failure. The diagnosis of lupus nephritis depends on a review of the patient's symptoms and laboratory investigations. Blood and urine tests are performed to detect abnormalities in kidney function, such as protein and blood in the urine, as well as inflammation markers in the blood. The healthcare provider may also perform diagnostic procedures, including X-rays and kidney ultrasounds, to visualize the stage and extent of the disease. Additionally, a kidney biopsy, which involves taking a tiny piece of renal tissue for investigation under a microscope, is required to confirm a diagnosis and guide treatment.
The rising cases of autoimmune diseases, which cause inflammation and scarring of the kidney tissues, are primarily driving the lupus nephritis market. In addition to this, the increasing prevalence of various associated risk factors, including genetic predisposition, certain infections, exposure to toxins, etc., is also bolstering the market growth. Furthermore, the escalating utilization of immunosuppressive drugs, such as mycophenolate mofetil and azathioprine, to manage the underlying symptoms of the ailment is acting as another significant growth-inducing factor. Apart from this, the growing application of monoclonal antibodies, which are designed to treat an excess of interferon activation and reduce inflammation, is further creating a positive outlook for the market. Moreover, various government authorities are taking initiatives to enhance access to care for patients with lupus nephritis, including increasing funding for healthcare infrastructure and reimbursement rates for providers. This, in turn, is also propelling the market growth. Additionally, the emerging popularity of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) blockers, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), aldosterone antagonists, etc., which can reduce high blood pressure and preserve kidney function in patients, is expected to drive the lupus nephritis market in the coming years.

Recent Developments:
In March 2024, Lupus Therapeutics declared a collaboration with Artiva Biotherapeutics, Inc. on a phase 1 trial of the novel NK cell-based therapy AlloNK (also called AB-101), in combination with anti-CD20 antibodies for individuals with active lupus nephritis. AlloNK is a non-genetically modified, allogeneic, cryopreserved natural killer (NK) cell treatment candidate designed to improve the efficacy of targeted monoclonal antibodies in depleting dangerous B cells.
In February 2024, Everest Medicines and Kezar Life Sciences, Inc. announced that the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) of China's National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) granted Kezar's investigational new drug (IND) application for the Phase 2b PALIZADE trial of zetomipzomib in patients with lupus nephritis in China. Zetomipzomib is a new, first-in-class, selective immunoproteasome inhibitor with extensive therapeutic potential across numerous autoimmune disorders.
In February 2024, Atara Biotherapeutics, Inc. announced that the company had recently submitted an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the U.S. FDA for the use of ATA3219 as a monotherapy for the management of systemic lupus erythematosus with kidney involvement (lupus nephritis).
In June 2023, Lupus Therapeutics announced the initiation of a collaboration to perform three Phase 3 clinical trials of ianalumab, an experimental treatment for lupus nephritis.
Key Highlights:
Lupus nephritis affects over 40% of patients with systemic lupus erythematous.
Approximately 3 out of 10,000 people have lupus nephritis.
Lupus nephritis frequently arises early in the illness course, usually within the first 6 to 36 months, and may be present at the first diagnosis.
Asians had a higher incidence of lupus nephritis (55%), followed by Africans (51%) and Hispanics (43%), compared to Caucasians (14%).
Patients with lupus nephritis had a death rate of more than 50% after 20 years, and of those who survived, 40% had end-stage renal disease.
Drugs:
LUPKYNIS is the first FDA-approved oral therapy for lupus nephritis. It works by inhibiting the progression of lupus nephritis and sparing the kidneys from permanent damage caused by this severe condition. The healthcare provider recommends that LUPKYNIS should not be taken with cyclophosphamide.
Secukinumab is an under investigation, anti-IL17A monoclonal antibody for the treatment of lupus nephritis. It works by inhibiting the molecule interleukin-17A (IL-17A), which plays a key role in inflammation.
Zanubrutinib is under clinical development by BeiGene. It is designed to be taken orally in the form of hard gelatin capsules. The drug is used to treat adult patients with lupus nephritis.
