Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of atacicept compared to placebo on change in proteinuria in adult subjects with IGAN.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Biological: Atacicept
  • Other: Placebo to match Atacicept
Phase 2

Detailed Description

The study will assess multiple doses of atacicept vs. placebo on impact of renal function as measured by proteinuria. Safety, eGFR, serum immunoglobulins and gd-IgA1 will also be clinically assessed. The clinical study is comprised of a 36wk double-blind treatment period, followed by a 60wk open-label treatment period and a 26wk safety follow-up period.

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. Change from baseline in urine protein to creatinine ratio (UPCR) [12, 48, 96 Weeks and Week 26 follow up]

      UPCR based on 24 hour urine collection

    2. Change from baseline in estimated glomerular filtration rage (eGFR) [12, 24, 36, 48, 96 Weeks and 26 Week follow up]
