The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of belimumab and intravenous rituximab co-administration at inducing a complete or partial remission (CR or PR) compared to rituximab alone in participants with primary membranous nephropathy. Background: Primary membranous nephropathy (MN) is among the most common causes of nephrotic syndrome in adults. MN affects individuals of all ages and races. The peak incidence of MN is in the fifth decade of life. Primary MN is recognized to be an autoimmune disease, a disease where the body's own immune system causes damage to kidneys. This damage can cause the loss of too much protein in the urine. Drugs used to treat MN aim to reduce the attack by one's own immune system on the kidneys by blocking inflammation and reducing the immune system's function. These drugs can have serious side effects and often do not cure the disease. There is a need for new treatments for MN that are better at improving the disease while reducing fewer treatment associated side effects. In this study, researchers will evaluate if treatment with a combination of two different drugs, belimumab and rituximab, is effective at blocking the immune attacks on the kidney compared to rituximab alone. Rituximab works by decreasing a type of immune cell, called B cells. B cells are known to have a role in MN. Once these cells are removed, disease may become less active or even inactive. However, after stopping treatment, the body will make new B cells which may cause disease to become active again. Belimumab works by decreasing the new B cells produced by the body and, may even change the type of new B cells subsequently produced. Belimumab is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat systemic lupus erythematosus (also referred to as lupus or SLE). Rituximab is approved by the FDA to treat some types of cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and vasculitis. Neither rituximab nor belimumab is approved by the FDA to treat MN. Treatment with a combination of belimumab and rituximab has not been studied in individuals with MN, but has been tested in other autoimmune diseases, including lupus nephritis and Sjögren's syndrome.Show more

This is an open label extension (OLE) study of an ongoing randomized controlled parent clinical studies 218224 (NCT05878717) and 221672 (NCT06572384) which aim to assess the efficacy and safety of belimumab on reducing the decline in lung function in participants with interstitial lung disease associated with diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc-ILD) and interstitial lung disease associated with other connective tissue diseases (CTD-ILD), respectively. The OLE study will describe how well tolerated belimumab will be long term, and whether it might continue to slow progression of lung function decline, slow overall disease progression and improve quality of life.Show more

This study investigates the efficacy and safety of belimumab compared to placebo, in addition to standard therapy, for the treatment of participants with systemic sclerosis associated interstitial lung disease (SSc-ILD). The study will evaluate the effect of belimumab treatment on lung function as well as on extra-pulmonary disease manifestations, including skin thickening and general symptoms, such as fatigue, that impact quality of life (QoL).Show more

The study consists of three parts: * Part 1: The primary purpose of this part aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of escalating doses of single agent belantamab in participants with refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have received at least 3 prior therapies (4L+). * Part 2: The primary purpose of this part is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of different doses of belantamab in combination with a fixed dose of Belantamab mafodotin (delivered as separate drugs) in participants with RRMM who have received at least 3 prior therapies (4L+). * Part 3: The Primary purpose of this part will evaluate the clinical activity of a selected dose of the belantamab in combination with the pomalidomide-dexamethasone (Pd) standard of care (SoC) backbone. The study will focus on participants with multiple myeloma who have undergone at least one prior line of therapy, including treatment with lenalidomide.Show more

The goal of this study is to test the safety of drug, Belantamab Mafodotin, and see what effects (good and bad) it has on people who take it and have amyloidosis, and to determine the most effective dose of the drug. The study will have 2 phases (parts). The first phase of the study will test different doses of Belantamab Mafodotin. The second phase will test Belantamab Mafodotin at the dose level found to be safe and effective in phase 1Show more

Multicenter retrospective and prospective European observational study. At each site, all consecutive patients with a 2016- or 2022 World Health Organization (WHO) confirmed diagnosis of myelofibrosis (MF) established from 01/01/2018 to 31/12/2027 will be enrolled into the study. Yearly follow-up updates will be scheduled until the end of data collection on 31/12/2028 or until the last available patient visit, whichever comes first. At least 1 year of follow-up will be ensured from the last patient enrolled.Show more

The primary purpose is to determine the safety and tolerability of belantamab mafodotin in combination with nirogacestat, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone and to establish the recommended Phase 2 dose for combination treatment to explore in the cohort expansion (CE) phase in participants with RRMM. This study is a sub study of the Master protocol (NCT04126200).Show more
