Description du projet
A novel diagnostic test for lupus
Lupus is an autoimmune disease affecting millions of people worldwide. Diagnosis is often delayed as there is no specific diagnostic tool and most symptoms resemble those of other autoimmune diseases. To address this problem, the EU-funded ClarifyLupus project has developed a novel tool for the diagnosis of lupus. Unlike autoantibodies that are highly unspecific among diseases overlapping with lupus, ClarifyLupus employs a lupus-specific biomarker whose efficacy has been validated in blood samples. This breakthrough diagnostic tool is expected to facilitate early diagnosis, helping to avoid the irreversible damage of this devastating disease.
