A Randomized, Blinded, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 2a, Proof-of-Concept Study to Evaluate Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of GS-5718 in Participants With Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus (CLE)

Primary Objective

To evaluate the efficacy of GS-5718 versus placebo-to-match (PTM) in reducing skin disease activity for participants with CLE with or without systemic lupus erythematosus. To evaluate the efficacy of GS-5718 versus PTM in reducing skin disease activity for participants with CLE with or without SLE. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GS-5178 in participants with CLE with or without SLE.

Participants must have a BMI between 18 and 35 kg/m2 inclusive. Participants must agree to use protocol specified methods of contraception. Participants must not have presence of active skin conditions other than cutaneous lupus that may interfere with assessing lupus-specific skin lesion(s) (eg, psoriasis, drug-induced lupus). Participants meeting any of the following criteria will be excluded: a) Prior use of interleukin-1 receptor associated kinase 4(IRAK4) inhibitor or degrader at any time. b) Exposure to cyclophosphamide within 60 days c) Exposure to JAK inhibitor (eg, tofacitinib, baricitinib, upadacitinib) within 60 days. d) Use of oral prednisone > 10mg/day within 28 days, or rituximab within 180 days. e) Use of injectable corticosteroids within 28 days f) Use of 2 or more non-biologic standard of care therapies within 28 days Additional inclusions and exclusions apply.
