12 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study is designed as a long-term extension to Study APL2-C3G-310, and is being conducted to establish the long-term safety and efficacy of pegcetacoplan in patients with C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) or immune-complex membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (IC-MPGN).
This is a Phase 3 study to assess the efficacy and safety of twice-weekly subcutaneous (SC) doses of pegcetacoplan compared to placebo in patients with C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) or immune-complex membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (IC-MPGN) on the basis of a reduction in proteinuria.
Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) is a relatively-rare, immune-mediated kidney disease. All current therapies are inadequate and MPGN frequently leads to kidney failure. This study is a 10 patient trial of the monoclonal antibody rituximab for adult patients with MPGN. Study patients will receive 2 doses of rituximab intravenously on days 1 and 15 and will then be followed for 1 year.
This study is being done to see if daratumumab is safe and effective in the treatment of proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal immune deposits (PGNMID) and C3 glomerulopathy associated with monoclonal gammopathy (C3GN). This is an inflammatory disease in the kidney due to the production of abnormal proteins. There are no known standard effective treatments for patients with PGNMID and C3GN secondary to monoclonal gammopathy. These diseases are caused by abnormal production of proteins (monoclonals) by abnormal clones. Daratumamb has been shown to be effective in treating patients with multiple myeloma a disease which also caused by over production of monoclonal proteins from abnormal clones. Everyone in this study will receive daratumumab.
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, open-label, randomized, controlled study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of pegcetacoplan in patients who have post-transplant recurrence of C3G or IC-MPGN.
This is an open-label extension study to evaluate the long-term efficacy, safety and tolerability of iptacopan in subjects with C3 glomerulopathy or idiopathic immune-complex-membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis
The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 12 months of oral ACH-0144471 (also known as danicopan and ALXN2040) in participants with C3G or IC-MPGN based on histologic scoring and proteinuria.
This study is evaluating the study drug (CDX-1135) in patients with dense deposit disease (DDD). The objective is to evaluate the safety and activity of repeated doses of CDX-1135 in pediatric and adult patients with DDD. After screening, eligible patients will be entered into the Induction Period. The Induction Period is up to 4 weeks. Following normalization of complement activity, patients will enter into the Maintenance Period.The total treatment duration is up to 26 weeks.
This open label, non-blinded, proof of concept efficacy and safety study of eculizumab in patients with biopsy proven DDD or C3 nephropathy. The trial will consist of adult patients with these diseases who have \> 1 gram of proteinuria or a decreased glomerular filtration rate (GFR), both predictors of a poor long-term outcome in many glomerular diseases. The patients will be treated with eculizumab for one year. The goals will be to determine whether treatment leads to an improvement in kidney function, defined by remissions of proteinuria and improvements in estimated GFR (measured by serum creatinine), and to improvement in histologic parameters, including percentage of non-affected glomeruli, interstitial fibrosis, intensity of C3 staining of immunofluorescence, and amount of electron dense deposits by electron microscopy.
The primary purpose of this proof-of-concept clinical study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the study drug, ACH-0144471 (also known as danicopan and ALXN2040), in participants with C3G who also had significant proteinuria attributable to C3G.
The aim of this trial is to evaluate the effect of avacopan treatment on renal disease activity in patients with complement component 3 glomerulopathy (C3G). Funding Source - FDA OOPD
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the experimental drug BG9588 can be used to treat lupus nephritis more effectively and with less toxicity than standard treatments, including cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan), azothioprine (Imuran) and prednisone. The body's immune system naturally produces antibodies to fight foreign substances like bacteria and viruses. In autoimmune diseases like lupus, however, the body makes antibodies that attack its own tissues, causing inflammation and organ damage. Lupus antibodies attack and damage kidney cells. BG9588 can interfere with the production of these antibodies, and therefore, may lessen kidney damage in people with lupus nephritis. This study will look at: how BG9588 enters and leaves the blood and body tissue over time; adverse effects of the drug; and whether treatment with BG9588 can result in less kidney damage than other therapies. Study patients will be receive a 30-minute infusion of BG9588 into a vein every two weeks for three doses and then once every 28 days for four doses. Patients' steroid dosage may be tapered; individual adjustments will be made as required. Patients screened for the study will undergo a physical examination, medical history, various blood and urine tests, as well as complete a quality of life questionnaire. Results of a previous kidney biopsy and chest X ray are also required. Many of these tests will be repeated throughout the study. In a previous animal study, BG9588 treatment of mice with lupus nephritis improved their disease and survival.
