Filter by:This is an adaptive prospective, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of WAL0921 in subjects with glomerular kidney disease and proteinuria, including diabetic nephropathy and rare glomerular kidney diseases (primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis [FSGS], treatment-resistant minimal change disease [TR MCD], primary immunoglobulin A nephropathy [IgAN], and primary membranous nephropathy [PMN]). Subjects in this study will be randomized to receive the investigational drug WAL0921 or placebo as an intravenous infusion once every 2 weeks for 7 total infusions. All subjects will be followed for 24 weeks after their last infusion.
This is a Phase II, open-label study designed to To evaluate the safety and efficacy of NM8074 in reducing proteinuria relative to baseline in IgAN patients after 99 days of treatment.
A Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics, and Clinical Activity of ADX-097 Administered Subcutaneously in Male and Female Participants Aged 18 Years or Older With Immunoglobulin A Nephropathy (IgAN), Lupus Nephritis (LN), or Complement Component 3 Glomerulopathy (C3G)
This study aims to investigate the influence of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSA) on the severity and prognosis of patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN), and to evaluate the therapeutic effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) intervention in such patients. Although the study is designed as an observational cohort study, where patients self-selected whether to receive treatment rather than being assigned, there is still an intervention project, CPAP, present in the observational cohort. Through a cohort study design, scientific evidences are expected for clinical decision-making and optimize treatment strategies for patients with OSA and IgAN.
immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy (Berger disease) is the most frequent primary glomerulonephritis worldwide. This disease accounts for about 5% of the causes of end stage renal disease in France, representing a major public health issue. Its pathophysiology seems to be triggered by mucosal immunity abnormalities leading to the systemic misaddressing of mucosal IgA, generation of circulating immunoglobulin A1 (IgA1) immune complexes finally deposited in renal glomeruli leading to renal tissue inflammation and scarring processes. Among this pathogeny, innate immunity is involved at several steps, including mucosal immunity. In this regard, hydroxychloroquine has been shown to generate a global anti-inflammatory effect, particularly through its action on Toll like receptors and dendritic cells. This drug is well tolerated, widely used for other auto-immune diseases (e.g. Systemic Lupus Erythematosus) and very low priced. One randomized controlled study conducted in China has recently shown a significant drop in proteinuria of IgA nephropathy patients treated with hydroxychloroquine (-48.4%) compared to the placebo group (+10.0%), after a quite short-term follow-up (6 months) and a moderate statistical power (30 patients in each group). Considering (i) the potential mechanism of therapeutic effect on this disease, (ii) the well documented safety profile of the drug for rheumatologic indications and posologies, and its low cost (iii) its efficacy in reducing proteinuria in IgA nephropathy patients in a preliminary Chinese randomized control study, the investigators aim in this study at establishing the beneficial impact of hydroxychloroquine on IgA nephropathy in a double blind randomized controlled trial on a Caucasian French population with harder outcomes and a longer follow-up compared to the Chinese preliminary study.
The study is being conducted to evaluate the efficacy, and safety of HRS-5965 tablets for primary IgA nephropathy. To explore the effective dosage of HRS-5965 tablets for primary IgA nephropathy.
Morning urine samples of patients with IgA nephropathy, idiopathic membranous nephropathy, diabetic nephropathy, and minimal degenerative nephropathy confirmed by renal needle biopsy in our hospital from November 2020 to January 2022 were collected. By scanning the morning urine samples of corresponding patients with microhyperspectral imager, machine learning and deep learning were used to classify microhyperspectral images, and the classification accuracy was greater than 85%. Thus, hyperspectral imaging technology could be used as a non-invasive diagnostic means to assist the diagnosis of glomerular diseases.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the effectiveness and safety of Telitacicept in adults with refractory IgA nephropathy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Telitacicept in patients with refractory IgA nephropathy. - To evaluate the safety and adverse reaction of Telitacicept in patients with refractory IgA nephropathy. Participants will be subcutaneously injected with 240mg of Telitacicept once per week. Study subject: After 6 months of sequential treatment with renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockers or glucocorticoids, patients with pathological biopsy of 0.7≥5 g/24 hours of proteinuria was confirmed as refractory IgA nephropathy.
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common glomerulonephritis worldwide, leading to end stage renal disease (ESRD) in up to 30 to 40% of patients with in a few decades after diagnosis. Several therapeutic options have been used in clinical practice. However, no treatments can completely stop the progression of IgAN. Given the pathogenic mechanism of IgAN, many researchers have tried to treat patients with IgAN using immunosuppression such as corticosteroids. To date, there have been conflicting results on the effects of immunosuppression in IgAN. Earlier studies from Italian groups showed that corticosteroid treatment significantly attenuated kidney function decline and decreased the development of ESRD. Since then, the beneficial effects of corticosteroids have generally been accepted for treatment of IgAN particularly in patients with high degree of proteinuria > 1.0 g/day despite maximal conservative care during 3 to 6 months. However, a recent interventional study by German group, known as the Supportive Versus Immunosuppressive Therapy for the Treatment of Progressive IgA Nephropathy (STOP-IgAN) trial, showed that immunosuppressive treatment in addition to intensive supportive care did not significantly improve renal outcome and resulted in more treatment-related side effects. Moreover, the Therapeutic Evaluation of Steroids in IgA Nephropathy Global (TESTING) study, another randomized controlled study from China, was early terminated because of safety concern related to corticosteroids. Interestingly, the primary composite outcome occurred significantly less in the methylprednisolone group as compared to the placebo group despite more serious adverse events in the former group. With this background in mind, we designed a multicenter prospective randomized controlled open-label trial; a step-wise therapeutic approach with corticosteroids or add-on cyclophosphamide therapy in IgAN patients with persistent proteinuria who have preserved eGFR of ≥ 30 ml/min/1.73 m2. A total of 19 hospitals will participate in this study. During 12 weeks before the enrollment, all patients will receive maximal supportive care including the use of RAS blockers, blood pressure control with a target of <130/80 mmHg, and protein restriction diet. If proteinuria does not decrease < 1.0 g/g creatinine, patients will be randomly assigned to continue supportive care, or to receive corticosteroids. At 3 months after randomization, patients in the corticosteroid arm who have persistent proteinuria of ≥ 1.0 g/g creatinine, or fast decline in eGFR ≥ 15% from the baseline value, will additionally receive cyclosphosphamide during the following 3 months. Patients who have substantial decreased amount of proteinuria < 1.0 g/g creatinine at 3 months will continue protocol-based corticosteroids during the same period. At 6 months after randomization, patients who receive add-on cyclophosphamide will switch to azathioprine as a maintenance therapy and those who receive corticosteroids alone will discontinue the treatment and will be followed up during 24 months thereafter. At least 87 subjects (a total of 174) would be required for each group to detect 13.5% difference in response rates between the two groups based on previous studies if type I error rate is 5% and type II error is 20% given 20% of drop-out rate during the study period. The primary endpoint is the development of a ≥ 30% decline in eGFR from the baseline or the onset of ESRD. This study will unveil conflicting results on the effects of immunosuppressive treatment in IgAN patients at high risk of progression.
