We leveraged longitudinal data from a prospective SLE cohort to identify clinical factors that predict significant variations in HCQ blood levels despite weight\u2010based HCQ dosing, and we examined if maintaining therapeutic HCQ levels (750\u20131,150 ng\/mL) improved SLE outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We analyzed 962 visits from 247 patients in a prospective SLE cohort. Generalized linear mixed models with random intercepts and slopes assessed associations among variables such as chronic kidney disease, HCQ dose, and HCQ blood levels over time. Next, within\u2010 and between\u2010subject decomposition models evaluated the impact of intra\u2010 and inter\u2010individual changes in HCQ blood levels and therapeutic HCQ blood levels on active SLE and flares over time.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      At baseline visit, the mean patient age was 47 years; 91% were female, 66% were White, 45% had subtherapeutic HCQ levels (&lt;750 ng\/mL), and 79% received an HCQ dose of \u22645 mg\/kg\/day.

At the individual patient level, increases of 100 ng\/mL in HCQ levels at each visit predicted 33% and 22% lower odds of active SLE and flares, respectively.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n
