About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Horizon Therapeutics plc Announces Phase 2 Trial Evaluating Daxdilimab for the Treatment of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) Did Not Meet Primary Endpoint

- The Company continues to assess the full dataset; daxdilimab trials in alopecia areata, discoid lupus erythematosus and lupus nephritis ongoing –

Horizon Therapeutics plc (Nasdaq: HZNP) today announced that its Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating daxdilimab for the treatment of SLE did not show a statistically significant separation between daxdilimab and placebo on the primary endpoint, which was the proportion of patients to achieve a British Isles Lupus Assessment Group (BILAG) 2004 Index-based Combined Lupus Assessment (BICLA) response and an oral glucocorticoid (OGC) dose of ≤7.5 mg/day (prednisone equivalent), which represented a reduction from the Baseline OGC dose at 48 weeks. BICLA is a composite measure indicating low SLE disease activity. Numerical differences were seen in other endpoints. No safety concerns were reported.

“While we are disappointed that the trial did not meet its primary endpoint, we will continue to work with investigators to assess these data to determine next steps for our SLE clinical program,” said Elizabeth H.Z. Thompson, Ph.D., executive vice president, research and development, Horizon. “I would like to thank the patients and investigators for their participation in the trial.”

About the Daxdilimab Phase 2 Clinical Trial in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

The Phase 2 study enrolled patients with moderate-to-severely active SLE. A total of 214 patients were randomized into three parallel arms: daxdilimab given subcutaneously 200 mg every 4 weeks, 200 mg every 12 weeks or placebo every 4 weeks. Additional trial endpoints included the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Responder Index of 4 (SRI-4), other measures of lupus disease activity and reduction in OGC.

About Daxdilimab

Daxdilimab is an anti-ILT7 human monoclonal antibody that depletes certain dendritic cells. Depleting these cells may interrupt the cycle of inflammation that causes tissue damage in a variety of autoimmune conditions. Horizon is also investigating daxdilimab in alopecia areata, discoid lupus erythematosus and lupus nephritis and plans to investigate it in dermatomyositis or anti-synthetase inflammatory myositis.
