Efficacy and Safety in Patients With Primary IgA Nephropathy Who Have Completed Study Nef-301 (Nefigard-OLE)
brief summary
This is a Phase 3b, multicenter, open-label extension (OLE) study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Nefecon treatment in patients with IgAN who have completed the Phase 3 Study Nef-301 and continue to be treated with a stable dose of RAS inhibitor therapy (ACEIs and/or ARBs). Patients who previously received Nefecon in Study Nef-301 will receive retreatment, whereas patients who previously received placebo in Study Nef-301 will be treatment naïve to Nefecon.
detailed description
This is a Phase 3b, multicenter, open-label extension (OLE) study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Nefecon treatment in patients with IgAN who have completed the Phase 3 Study Nef 301 and continue to be treated with a stable dose of RAS inhibitor therapy (ACEIs and/or ARBs). Patients who previously received Nefecon in Study Nef-301 will receive retreatment, whereas patients who previously received placebo in Study Nef-301 will be treatment naïve to Nefecon. During Study Nef-301 OLE, the patients and Investigators will remain blinded to treatment given in Study Nef-301.
During Study Nef-301 OLE, patients will receive Nefecon for a 9-month period. The dose may be reduced if clinically relevant adverse events (AEs) develop during the 9-month Treatment Period that the Investigator considers related to the study drug and that mandate dose reduction.
Patients will remain on a stable dose of RAS inhibitor therapy (ACEIs and/or ARBs) throughout the study. The patient will come for a follow-up visit at 12 months after first dose.
