Abstract: Lupus nephritis (LN) is a concerning and frequent manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a complex issue in clinical practice requiring more evidence to advance its treatment. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of monoclonal antibodies in LN treatment. It is an integrative literature review consisting of previously prepared scientific articles sourced from the National Library of Medicine (PubMed) and the Virtual Health Library Regional Portal (BVS). Articles were searched using the descriptors "lupus nephritis," "treatment," and "monoclonal antibody" from 2019 to 2024, with 19 articles selected for this study. Were included articles published in the last 5 years (2019-2024), clinical trials, and observational studies. Were excluded articles lacking clear theoretical basis, duplicate entries across databases, or those not aligned with the study's objectives. Monoclonal antibodies analyzed included obinutuzumab, anifrolumab, BI655064, belimumab, and rituximab, with 16 utilizing standard therapy alongside their use in LN treatment. Belimumab, rituximab, obinutuzumab, and anifrolumab were effective in LN treatment, particularly in refractory cases to standard therapy. Monoclonal antibodies prove effective in lupus nephritis, utilized within the new therapeutic landscape, benefiting patients affected by this condition.
