Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- All participants
- Male or female participants aged ≥16 years.
- uPCR ≥0.5 g/g (from the average of 3 first morning voids \[FMVs\]).
- Screening eGFR ≥30 mL/min/1.73m2 calculated by the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration creatinine equation (CKD-EPI GFR).
- Participants receiving a renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitor, sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, sparsentan, or atrasenten must have been on a stable dose (at the maximum recommended dose according to local guidelines or maximum tolerated dose) for at least 8 weeks prior to Study Day 1 and the dose is projected to remain stable until completion of the study. Participants with IgAN only
- Kidney biopsy-proven diagnosis of IgAN with a kidney biopsy that is obtained within 10 years of Day 1 or within 5 years of Day 1 if the participant is known or suspected of also having diabetic nephropathy. Participants with LN only
- Clinical diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)
- Kidney biopsy-proven diagnosis of LN with a kidney biopsy that is obtained within 24 weeks of Day 1.
- Diagnosis of active focal or diffuse LN class III or IV Participants with C3G only
- Kidney biopsy-proven diagnosis of C3G, either dense deposit disease (DDD) or complement component 3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN), with a kidney biopsy that is obtained within 52 weeks of Day 1.
- Participants receiving mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) (or mycophenolic acid) or prednisone ≥10 mg/d or equivalent must have been on a stable dose for at least 12 weeks before Day 1 that is projected to remain stable until completion of the study. Key
Exclusion criteria
- All participants
- Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis defined as a 50% decline in eGFR within 12 weeks of screening.
- Concomitant significant renal disease other than IgAN, C3G, or LN per investigator discretion.
- Participants with a history of and/or presence of anti-factor H antibodies at screening.
- Uncontrolled hypertension with mean seated systolic blood pressure (BP) ≥160 mmHg or diastolic BP ≥100 mmHg based on the average of 2 measurements obtained at approximately 2-minute intervals after the individual has been sitting for 5 minutes.
- Kidney, other solid organs, or bone marrow transplantation prior to or expected to occur during the study.
- History of splenectomy. Participants with IgAN only
- Secondary forms of IgAN
- Received systemic corticosteroid therapy, oral budenoside, or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 12 weeks before Day 1. Participants with LN only
- Lymphocyte count below 0.5 × 109/L at screening.
- Received any of Cyclophosphamide, Calcineurin inhibitors, IV methylprednisolone, IV immunoglobulin therapy, Belimumab, Obinutuzumab and Rituximab treatments at protocol specified time points. Participants with C3G only
- Evidence of monoclonal gammopathy of unclear significance, infections, malignancy, autoimmune diseases, or other conditions to which C3G is secondary.
- Received systemic corticosteroid therapy, eculizumab, iptacopan, pegcetacoplan, or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy ≤12 weeks before Day 1, except for MMF (or mycophenolic acid), which is permitted.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
