      Neihulizumab, novel immune checkpoint agonistic ab that binds to human CD162 (PSGL-1), thereby preferentially inducing apoptosis in late stage activated T cells.

      50% use septra/bactrim in SLE if immunesuppressed. I don’t use it unless if frequent serious infections or bad lungs as I am not convinced about the risk of PCP/PJP v risk of septra with adverse rxns in SLE.
