Filter by:IgA nephropathy accounts for about 45 per cent of primary glomerular diseases in China and about 26 per cent of renal biopsies in patients with chronic failure.According to current guideline recommendations, there are limited indications for non-steroidal MRAs. Therefore clinical studies to explore the range of clinical indications for fenetyllone are warranted.
The study is being conducted to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics pharmacodynamics of SHR-2010 by intravenously/subcutaneously in Healthy Subject.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Tai Ai (Recombinant Human B Lymphocyte Stimulator Receptor-Antibody Fusion Protein for Injection) in the treatment of IgA nephropathy.
This is a phase 1, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, single ascending dose study of IV VIS649 in healthy subjects. VIS649 is a monoclonal immunoglobulin G2 (IgG2) antibody targeting the B-cell growth factor APRILL. The study will enroll up to 45 subjects and will be conducted in up to 5 sequential dosing cohorts at four different dose levels, enrolling 9 subjects per cohort. Subjects will be randomized to VIS649 or placebo in a ratio of 7:2 (7 active, 2 placebo). Safety, pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) data from the initial cohorts will be assessed.
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent form of primary glomerulonephritis in the Western world. Although most IgAN patients take a benign longterm course, about 20-30% progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) over 20 years. The majority of current treatment recommendations is based on weak evidence. In the randomized, controlled Supportive Versus Immunosuppressive Therapy for the Treatment Of Progressive IgAN (STOP-IgAN) trial, the investigators analyzed whether additional immunosuppression on top of standardized supportive care provides renal benefits in patients with progressive IgAN. Patients with persisting proteinuria >0.75 g/d (n=162) despite optimized supportive treatment including control of blood pressure and proteinuria, were randomized to either continue on supportive care or to receive additional immunosuppression during the 3-year trial phase. It was observed that immunosuppressive therapy in addition to optimized supportive care led to more full clinical remissions, but eventually did not better preserve renal function, did not better save patients from ESRD development and evoked more adverse effects such as infections, weight gain and diabetes. Aim of this planned study is to analyze renal outcome measures and adverse effects in the longterm observation of all randomized STOP-IgAN participants to ascertain quality and strength of the original trial results. By its observational nature, this quality control study includes the 162 IgAN patients (with the exception of drop-out patients) that had been previously randomized into the original STOP-IgAN trial. Information on serum creatinine, proteinuria, ESRD, death, relevant adverse events such as major cardiovascular events, osteoporosis, osteonecrosis, bone fractures, diabetes, malignancies and interim treatment will be collected as available from existing routine records until March 31, 2018. Primary endpoint is the time to the first occurring event of the binary composite of all-cause death, ESRD or decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) by at least 40% as compared to enrollment into the original trial. Secondary outcome measures comprise the individual components of the primary endpoint, absolute eGFR at the end of observation, proteinuria and adverse events. Information on specific treatments with renin-angiotensin-system (RAS)-blocking agents and/or interim immunosuppression will also be collected. All data will be recorded in a pseudonymous fashion in a central electronic data base located at the PI's site.
Efficacy and safety of LNP023 in IgAN patients
This multi-center, open-label Phase 2 trial will study the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of bardoxolone methyl in qualified patients with the following rare chronic kidney diseases (CKD): CKD associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D), IgA nephropathy (IgAN), focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Patients will be enrolled in disease specific cohorts within the trial, and effectiveness of bardoxolone methyl in treating CKD will be assessed separately by cohort for each rare CKD. All patients in the study will follow the same visit and assessment schedule. Following randomization on Day 1, patients will be scheduled to be assessed during treatment at Weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12, and by telephone contact on Days 3, 10, 21, 31, 38, and 45. Patients will also be scheduled to be assessed at an in-person follow-up visit at Week 16, four weeks after the end of treatment.
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent primary glomerular disease worldwide and an important cause of end stage renal disease. IgAN has an incidence of 8-25 new cases/year/per million age-related population in adults and 3-5/new cases/year/per million age-related population in children and progresses to need of renal replacement treatment in 5-15% at 10 years and in about 20% at 20 years. The variability of the clinical course anticipates different treatment options. There is an absolute need of validated biomarkers to predict risk of progression and indication for treatment at early stages, when lesions can be reversible. This study aimed to evaluate IgAN progression and its histological and clinical correlates.
The anti-hinge region antibodies would be a relevant biomarker of IgA nephropathy. Beyond a prognostic value (which could increase the risk of Renal Absolute), the longitudinal monitoring for these antibodies could be of interest: (1) in the monitoring of patients (in place including a possible repetition renal biopsy); (2) to guide treatment decisions and (3) in clinical research, as an outcome (in substitution for the occurrence of kidney failure) in therapeutic trials IgA nephropathy. This research project constitutes the first step in validating these antibodies biomarker of IgA nephropathy and its main objective is to study the performance of the blood levels of anti-hinge region antibodies in the diagnosis of progressive forms of histologically IgA nephropathy as defined by the Renal Risk Absolute. The secondary objectives of this project are to establish a bio-collection that will allow us to search for other prognostic factors (genetic, cellular and serum) of IgA nephropathy and to evaluate the performance of Renal Absolute risk by integrating Oxford score, the new international histological classification.
The purpose of this study is to determine the location of periostin and urine periostin level in patients with lupus nephritis and IgA nephropathy.
