Join others with lupus in a groundbreaking research study you can do from home and receive $75 for your time.

Everyone’s journey with lupus is unique - from diagnosis, to treatments, to flare triggers. That’s why researchers at DxTerity, a genomics company, are developing an at-home blood test for people living with lupus to monitor their disease activity. LIFT (Lupus Interval Monitoring to Manage Disease Flare and Enable Treatment Optimization) by DxTerity, is a groundbreaking at-home study designed to better understand lupus by studying the experiences of thousands of people across the country living with this condition.


The Lupus Interval Monitoring to Manage Disease Flare and Enable Treatment Optimization (LIFT) study seeks to enroll participants nationwide to help researchers to
develop an at-home blood test people living with lupus can use to monitor their disease activity. The study is being conducted by DxTerity, a genomics company developing tests to better manage autoimmune diseases.


By completing surveys about your experience with lupus and using an at-home kit to collect a few drops of blood (much like at-home glucose monitoring) from the convenience of home, you can join the hundreds of LIFT study participants who are helping break new ground in lupus research. You will also be compensated for your time—receive $75 for complete study participation or tell LIFT to donate the $75 to a lupus charity.


Who can participate?
  • Men and women 18 or older diagnosed with lupus


Why participate?
  • Join thousands of people with lupus helping advance scientific understanding of lupus without leaving your home
  • Help researchers develop new tools to monitor lupus disease activity. You will be compensated for your time—receive $75 for complete study participation or tell LIFT to donate the $75 compensation to a lupus charity


How does the LIFT study work?
  1. Sign up online at http://bit.ly/LIFTStudy-dl. You will receive an at-home fingerstick blood collection kit in the mail within 30 days.
  2. Use the kit to collect only a few drops of your blood at home. Mail your sample to the research lab using the prepaid mailing envelope.
  3. Log in to your secure study portal and complete a short survey online.


The goal of the study is to see if the at-home blood collection kit could provide a better, easier and more convenient way for people with lupus to track and manage their disease and flare activity.

Help shape the future of lupus and join the LIFT study today: http://bit.ly/LIFTStudy-dl. I plan to join and share my experience. Will you?
