This was a cross-sectional, non-interventional, online survey of adult patients with SLE conducted between October and November 2019 in the US. The study consisted of: (1) a qualitative pilot phase to refine the survey and confirm that the survey content was understood and relevant and (2) a main study phase. This study was approved by a US ethical institutional review board in accordance with local law. Advarra, a US-based institutional review board, reviewed study documents (protocol, informed consent form, and patient survey) prior to completion of any patient data. All participants completed an electronic informed consent form prior to completing the online survey. All data were de-identified and kept confidential in accordance with International Council for Harmonization for Good Clinical Practice.
