A Study of Fresolimumab in Patients With Steroid-Resistant Primary Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS)
Trial ID or NCT#
Status
Purpose
The primary objectives of this trial are as follows: - to compare the achievement of a partial remission (PR) or complete remission (CR) in urinary protein: creatinine ratio (Up/c ratio) in patients treated with fresolimumab versus placebo - to compare the safety profile of patients treated with fresolimumab versus placebo The secondary objectives are as follows: - To compare the reduction in proteinuria in patients treated with fresolimumab versus placebo - To evaluate fresolimumab dose-dependent reduction in proteinuria - To compare the change in renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR]) in patients treated with fresolimumab versus placebo - To evaluate the multiple-dose pharmacokinetics of fresolimumab
Official Title
A Phase 2, Multicenter, Double-Blind, Parallel Dosing, Randomized Study of Fresolimumab or Placebo in Patients With Steroid-Resistant Primary Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis
Eligibility Criteria
- - The patient's renal biopsy is consistent with the diagnosis of primary Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) including all histological subtypes. - The patient has an eGFR ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 - The patient has a urinary total protein:creatinine ratio ≥ 3 mg protein/mg creatinine - In the opinion of the Investigator, the patient has steroid-resistant FSGS. The patient must have been treated for FSGS with a course of high-dose steroid therapy for a minimum of 4 weeks - The patient has been treated with an ACEi (angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor) and/or ARB (angiotensin receptor blocker) at a stable dose for a minimum of 4 weeks prior to Visit 2 (treatment start)
- - The patient has FSGS which in the Investigator's opinion is secondary to another condition - The patient has been taking prednisone at a dose > 10 mg/day (or equivalent dose of an alternative glucocorticoid) within 4 weeks prior to Visit 1 (Screening Visit). - The patient has received any other systemically administered immunosuppressive drugs (other than glucocorticoids) within 8 weeks prior to Visit 1. - The patient has received rituximab within 6 months prior to Visit 1. - The patient has a history of organ transplantation.
