BACKGROUND: In South Korea, belimumab is indicated for patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), including paediatric patients aged ≥ 5 years, and for adults with lupus nephritis, based on clinical trial evidence; however, real-world data in this population remain limited.
OBJECTIVE: To assess the real-world safety and effectiveness of intravenous (IV) belimumab administered in patients with SLE in South Korea.
METHODS: This observational study (GSK Study 216984) enrolled patients with active SLE and patients with lupus nephritis across 18 South Korean institutions (July 2021-February 2023). Patients received on-label IV belimumab plus standard therapy (antimalarials, glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants). Data were collected for a minimum of 48 weeks as part of routine clinical practice (July 2021-March 2024). Safety was assessed by monitoring the incidence of adverse events (AEs), adverse drug reactions (ADRs), serious AEs (SAEs)/ADRs and AEs of special interest (including psychiatric events) and summarised descriptively. Changes in SELENA-SLEDAI scores, laboratory biomarkers and glucocorticoid dosage from baseline to week 24 or 48 were tested using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test.
RESULTS: Of 126 enrolled patients, 105 were eligible for the ≥ 48-week safety evaluation (completed ≥ 24 weeks of belimumab treatment). Patients were mostly female (91.4%, n = 96/105), with mean (SD) SLE duration of 9.9 (8.1) years; 45.7% (n = 48/105) of patients had lupus nephritis. AEs and SAEs were experienced by 66.7% (n = 70/105) and 18.1% (n = 19/105) of patients; most events were mild or moderate in severity and unlikely to be related to belimumab. ADRs were reported for 3.8% (n = 4/105) of patients, and psychiatric events for 2.9% (n = 3/105). SELENA-SLEDAI and laboratory biomarkers significantly improved, and glucocorticoid dosage significantly reduced, between baseline and weeks 24 and 48.
CONCLUSIONS: This real-world study identified no new safety concerns and demonstrated effectiveness of belimumab, supporting its use in Korean patients.
