About This Trial

RESET-SLE: A Phase 1/2 Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of CABA-201 in Subjects With Active Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 1 trials test a new treatment for the first time in humans, focusing on safety, dosing, and how the body processes the drug. For Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, a Phase 1 study typically enrolls a small number of participants — often healthy volunteers or patients who have exhausted standard treatment options. Phase 1 results determine whether a treatment moves into larger Phase 2 efficacy studies.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

With a target enrollment of 28 participants, this is a small study — typical of early-phase research, rare-disease trials, or pilot studies designed to generate preliminary signal before a larger study is launched.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: - Age ≥18 and ≤65 - A clinical diagnosis of SLE, based on the 2019 European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR)/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) classification criteria for adult SLE. - Positive antinuclear antibody (ANA) titer or anti-dsDNA antibody at screening. - For LN subjects only, active, biopsy-proven LN class III or IV, with or without the presence of class V, according to 2018 Revised International Society of Nephrology/Renal Pathology Society (ISN/RPS) criteria - For non-renal SLE subjects only: Active, moderate to severe SLE Who Should NOT Join This Trial: - Contraindication to leukapheresis - History of anaphylactic or severe systemic reaction to fludarabine, cyclophosphamide or any of their metabolites - Active infection requiring medical intervention at screening - Current symptoms of severe, progressive, or uncontrolled renal, hepatic, hematological, gastrointestinal, pulmonary, psychiatric, cardiac, neurological, or cerebral disease, including severe and uncontrolled infections, such as sepsis and opportunistic infections. - Concomitant medical conditions that, in the opinion of the investigator, might place the subject at unacceptable risk for participation in this study, interfere with the assessment of the effects or safety of the investigational product or with the study procedures - For LN subjects only: The presence of kidney disease other than active lupus nephritis - Previous CAR T cell therapy - Prior solid organ (heart, liver, kidney, lung) transplant or hematopoietic cell transplant. Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.

How to Talk to Your Doctor About This Trial

Bring the printable summary of this trial — including the NCT ID (NCT06121297), the sponsor (Cabaletta Bio), and the key eligibility criteria — to your next appointment. Your doctor can review the inclusion and exclusion criteria against your medical history, lab values, and current treatments to assess whether you are likely to qualify. They can also help you weigh whether trial participation makes sense alongside your existing care plan.

Useful questions to walk through together: What does the trial protocol require beyond standard care? How long is the active treatment phase, and how long is follow-up? Are there study visits at sites I can reach? Who pays for the trial-specific procedures, and who pays for standard-of-care portions? See our 25 questions to ask about clinical trials guide for a more complete checklist.
