An Open-label Study of Povetacicept (ALPN-303) in Autoimmune Kidney Diseases
The goal of this clinical study is to assess multiple dose levels of povetacicept (ALPN-303) in adults with immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy, membranous nephropathy, lupus-related kidney disease (lupus nephritis). or anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis to determine if povetacicept is safe and potentially beneficial in treating these diseases. During the study treatment period, patients will receive povetacicept approximately every 4 weeks for 6 months, with the possibility of participating in a 6-month treatment extension period and an optional 52 week treatment extension period.
