A Study of Telitacicept for Injection (RC18) in Subjects With IgA Nephropathy
A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Multicenter Study of Telitacicept for Injection (RC18) in Subjects With IgA Nephropathy
Breve descripción
IgA nephropathy, also known as Berger’s Disease, is a kidney disease in which IgA, a protein meant to help the body fight infections, accumulates in the kidneys and damages them. This study is seeking to determine the safety and effectiveness of Telitacicept in the treatment of IgA nephropathy. A clinical study using this investigational new drug in China showed potential benefit in treating IgAN by reducing urine protein. However, more clinical data is needed to further evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Telitacicept in IgAN patients.

El ensayo es para personas con
IgA Nephropathy
Objetivo del estudio
To determine the safety and effectiveness of Telitacicept in the treatment of IgA nephropathy The primary outcome measure is the change from baseline in 24-hour urine protein at Week 24.
Qué implica para el paciente?
The study is composed of 3 parts: a screening period, a double-blind treatment period, and a safety follow-up period. Subjects with confirmed IgA nephropathy within 8 years will be enrolled and randomized 1:1:1 to Telitacicept 160 mg, Telitacicept 240 mg, or placebo (10 per arm). There is a 2 in 3 chance of receiving Telitacicept and a 1 in 3 chance of receiving placebo.
Sobre el medicamento o la intervención
Telitacicept (RC18) targets two cell-signaling molecules critical for B-lymphocyte development. This allows it to effectively reduce B-cell mediated autoimmune responses that are implicated in several autoimmune diseases including IgA Nephropathy.
