Overview

The Primary Completion Date and Study Completion Date have been updated to reflect completion of the adolescent cohort, which has been added to the protocol. The study is designed as a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of iptacopan (LNP023) in complement 3 glomerulopathy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of iptacopan compared to placebo and standard of care in patients with native C3G. CLNP023B12301 is a Phase 3 pivotal trial for registration of iptacopan in C3G. The study aims to determine the reduction in UPCR and improvement in eGFR in participants treated with iptacopan compared to placebo, as well as the proportion of participants who achieve a composite renal endpoint consisting of eGFR and UPCR elements. These effects of iptacopan in conjunction with increases in serum C3 levels will provide support for an iptacopan profile that includes stabilization of eGFR, clinically meaningful reductions in proteinuria and inhibition of the complement AP. Kidney biopsies will be performed in adult participants to evaluate histopathological improvements in immunofluorescence and light microscopy that support these functional benefits of iptacopan.

Medical Language ↔ Plain English

Inclusion Criteria: * Male and female participants age ≥ 12 and ≤ 60 years at screening. * Diagnosis of C3G as confirmed by renal biopsy within 12 months prior to enrollment in adults and within 3 years in adolescents. * Prior to randomization, all participants must have been on a maximally recommended or tolerated dose of an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) for at least 90 days. The doses of other antiproteinuric medications including mycophenolic acid, corticosteroids and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists should be stable for at least 90 days prior to randomization. * Reduced serum C3 (defined as less than 0.85 x lower limit of the central laboratory normal range) at Screening. * UPCR ≥ 1.0 g/g sampled from the first morning void urine sample at Day -75 and Day -15. * Estimated GFR (using the CKD-EPI formula for ages ≥ 18 years and modified Schwartz formula for ages 12 to 17 years) or measured GFR ≥ 30 ml/min/1.73m2 at screening and Day -15. * Mandatory vaccination against Neisseria meningitidis and Streptococcus pneumoniae prior to the start of study treatment. * If not previously vaccinated or if a booster is required, vaccination against Haemophilus influenzae infections should be given, if available and according to local regulations, at least 2 weeks prior to the first study treatment administration. If study treatment has to start earlier than 2 weeks post vaccination, prophylactic antibiotic treatment should be initiated. Exclusion Criteria: * Participants who have received any cell or organ transplantation, including a kidney transplantation. * Rapidly progressive crescentic glomerulonephritis defined as a 50% decline in the eGFR within 3 months with renal biopsy findings of glomerular crescent formation seen in at least 50% of glomeruli. * Renal biopsy showing interstitial fibrosis/tubular atrophy (IF/TA) of more than 50% * Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) confirmed by the measurement of serum free light chains or other investigation as per local standard of care. * Participants with an active systemic bacterial, viral or fungal infection within 14 days prior to study treatment administration * The presence of fever ≥ 38°C (100.4°F) within 7 days prior to study treatment administration. * A history of recurrent invasive infections caused by encapsulated organisms, e.g., N. meningitidis and S. pneumoniae. * The use of inhibitors of complement factors (e.g., Factor B, Factor D, C3 inhibitors, anti C5 antibodies, C5a receptor antagonists) within 6 months prior to the Screening visit. * The use of immunosuppressants (except mycophenolic acids), cyclophosphamide or systemic corticosteroids at a dose \>7.5 mg/day (or equivalent for a similar medication) within 90 days of study drug administration. * Acute post-infectious glomerulonephritis at screening based upon the opinion of the investigator.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Adult cohort: Log-transformed ratio to baseline in UPCR (sampled from a 24-hour urine collection)

To demonstrate the superiority of iptacopan compared to placebo in reducing proteinuria at 6 months of treatment.

Time frame: 6 months (double-blind)

Adolescent cohort: Log-transformed ratio to baseline in UPCR (sampled from a 24-hour urine collection)

To evaluate the effect of iptacopan on proteinuria at 6 months.

Time frame: 6 months (double-blind)

Change from baseline in log-transformed UPCR at the 12-month visit (both study treatment arms).

To evaluate the effect of iptacopan on proteinuria at 12 months.

Time frame: 12 months (double-blind and open-label)

Change in log-transformed UPCR from the 6-month visit to the 12-month visit in the placebo arm

To evaluate the effect of iptacopan on proteinuria at 12 months.

Time frame: From month 6 to month 12 (open-label)

Secondary Outcomes

Change from baseline in eGFR.

To demonstrate the superiority of iptacopan vs. placebo in improving eGFR.

Time frame: 6 months (double-blind)

Proportion of participants who meet the criteria for achieving a composite renal endpoint

To demonstrate the superiority of iptacopan vs. placebo in the proportion of participants who meet the criteria for achieving a composite renal endpoint. A participant meets the requirements of the composite renal endpoint if he/she satisfies: (1) a stable or improved eGFR compared to the baseline visit (≤15% reduction in eGFR), and (2) a ≥50% reduction in UPCR compared to the baseline visit.

Time frame: 6 months (double-blind)
