Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:.
* Diagnosis of SLE fulfilling SLICC criteria or 2019 European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR)/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria at least 24 weeks prior to study entry, with one of the following at Screening
* If taking a corticosteroid regimen prior to Screening, currently receiving ≤ 20 mg prednisone or equivalent by Day -28. Exceptions for patients with active LN are detailed in Section XX (where we talk about CS use).
* Female participants of non-childbearing potential must be either surgically sterile (hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, salpingectomy, and/or bilateral oophorectomy at least 26 weeks before the Screening Visit) or postmenopausal, defined as spontaneous amenorrhea for at least 1 year, with follicle-stimulating hormone in the postmenopausal range at Screening, as per central laboratory reference range.
Additional criteria for Phase 2a participants only:
* Hybrid SLEDAI ≥ 6 at Screening AND Day 1. Note: only the clinical aspects of hybrid SLEDAI must be confirmed on Day 1; laboratory values that contribute to hybrid SLEDAI do not need to be re-measured prior to dosing on Day 1. Additional criteria for contributions to hybrid SLEDAI are as follows:
* Participants with neurological system contribution to hybrid SLEDAI will not be enrolled.
* At least 6 points from the hybrid SLEDAI score must be derived from organ system involvement excluding points from oral ulcers, alopecia, or anti-dsDNA auto-antibododies
Additional criteria for Phase 2a participants with LN:
* Diagnosis of International Society of Nephrology/Renal Pathology Society (ISN/RPS) 2003 Class III or IV LN as evidenced by renal biopsy performed within 2 years prior to or during Screening, either with or without the presence of Class V LN.
* Proteinuria (UPCR \> 1.0 gram per gram \[g/g\]), based on a sample from a 24 hour urine collection during Screening.
* Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 (as calculated by the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration formula).
* Currently receiving 1 or more immunosuppressive agents that has been stable for dose and route of administration for ≥ 8 weeks prior to baseline.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Use of IV, intramuscular, intra-articular, or high-potency intralesional corticosteroids within 6 weeks prior to Screening or expectation of requiring parenteral corticosteroids during the study. Exceptions include protocol required pre-medication prior to infusion of budoprutug.
* Use of high-potency topical corticosteroid and/or topical agents (immunosuppressant) for skin lesions within 7 days prior to Screening
* The following laboratory values:
* Absolute neutrophil count \< 1.0 × 109/L.
* White blood cell count \< 2.0 × 109/L.
* Cluster of differentiation (CD) 19 B-cell count \<80 cells/µL.
* Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and/or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) \> 2 × ULN.
* Total bilirubin \> 1.5 × ULN, unless due to Gilbert's syndrome.
* History of serious or significant infusion reaction associated with rituximab, belimumab, anifrolumab, or other monoclonal antibody therapy.
* History of or current diagnosis of active tuberculosis, untreated latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) or undergoing current treatment for untreated LTBI
* History of chronic (i.e., chronic urinary tract infection), recurrent (3 or more of the same type of infection in a 52-week period), latent, or recent serious infection
* Any previous use of CD19 targeted therapy (e.g., inebilizumab or cell therapy).
