This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled Phase IIb study to explore the efficacy and safety of STL303 capsules in IgAN patients. About 15 patients dignosed with primary IgAN will be enrolled and randomized to three cohorts and take different dosage of STL303 or placebo capsules orally according to protocol.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in approximately 15 patients with primary IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Participants receiving background therapy will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive STL303 capsules dose 1, dose 2, or placebo, administered orally once daily. The study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of STL303 in patients with primary IgAN and to identify the optimal clinical dose.

Treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs), adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)
All participants will be observed for any AE during the clinical study, including abnormalities in clinical symptoms and vital signs, physical examination, laboratory tests, and 12-lead ECG. Incidence, severity, and relationship of TEAEs and serious adverse events (SAEs) to STL303. Possible adverse events include: palpitations, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, sore throat, upper respiratory infection, loss of appetite, high temperature, chest discomfort, weakness, rash, headache, lethargy (feeling tired and low on energy) and urinary tract infection.
Time frame: Adverse events will be closely monitored, and participants will report to the clinic on Days 7, 14, 30, 45, 60, 90, 135 and at end of treatment on Day 180. On Day 210 an End of study safety follow up will also be conducted.
