Conventional versus Rapid Glucocorticoid Tapering in Severe Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Patients: A Non-Blind, Randomized Controlled Trial

Glucocorticoids (GCs) have long played a central role in the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but these drugs have many adverse effects. We will determine whether rapid weekly GC tapering is non-inferior to conventional biweekly tapering in patients with severe SLE. This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter controlled trial.
