What Are We Studying?
This study aims to better understand the changes that occur in the blood of people with and without lupus, and how different lupus treatments may influence these changes. You do not need to have lupus to be eligible to participate in this study. This may help identify new therapy targets that may reverse lupus. No study drugs will be given to any participants in this study.
What Does Participation Involve?
Participants enrolled in the study will be scheduled for a single one-hour study visit at UConn Health, Farmington, CT to answer questions about medical history and medications along with having a blood sample collected.
Will I be Compensated?
All study procedures performed will be at no charge and you will receive a $50 gift card to compensate for your participation.
