Can we taper IV belimumab in #SLE? Dr Fredi reported 14/48 (29%) extended tx to at least 5-weekly after 12mo of tx. No worsening C3/C4 & PGA but interestingly #steroid and SLEDAI ⬇️. More works needed to identify suitable pts for taper and regime #EULAR2021 #POS0107 @RheumNow https://t.co/Gwe7mPWPdY
