Brief Summary:
The goal of this study is to evaluate how epratuzumab is processed by the body (pharmacokinetics) and whether 2 dose levels of epratuzumab are safe and effective in patients with SLE.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Lupus Erythematosus, Systemic Drug: epratuzumab Phase 2

Detailed Description:
This study is planned to provide information on how the body processes epratuzumab and how epratuzumab affects the body when epratuzumab is given once weekly for 4 weeks in a row at one of 2 different dose levels. Additional information will be obtained related to the natural variability of disease activity in SLE patients.
