The objective of this observational study is to compare the efficacy and safety of telitacicept versus belimumab in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients aged 18-65 years. The primary questions it aims to answer are: * In the overall SLE population: What are the SRI-4 response rates for both drugs? * In the lupus nephritis subgroup: What are the major renal response rates for both drugs? Participants will autonomously select their treatment regimen (add-on telitacicept or belimumab) based on: * The patient's objective clinical condition at enrollment * Physician's assessment * Joint decision-making between physicians and patients/family members As an observational study, no active intervention will be implemented.
