Type I interferon (IFN) is a strong immune activator found in high concentrations in the majority of patients with lupus, an autoimmune disease. In Arthritis & Rheumatology, researchers report positive results from the first placebo-controlled long-term trial of anifrolumab, a human monoclonal antibody that targets the type I IFN receptor, in lupus patients.
