Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- Signed informed consent must be obtained prior to participation in the OLE study.
- Completion of the parent study (both participants assigned to receive the investigational product and placebo) as defined by the respective protocol
- Per Investigator’s clinical judgment, the participant may benefit from receiving open-label treatment of zigakibart 600 mg s.c. Q2W.
You likely can't join if
- Participants who prematurely withdrew from zigakibart parent studies in IgAN for any reason
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding or intent to become pregnant or to donate sperm during the study period and until 24 weeks after last dose.
- History or evidence of any other clinically significant medical or psychiatric disorder, condition, disease, or laboratory finding that, in the discretion of the Investigator, constitutes an uncertain or unfavorable benefit-risk for continued long-term therapy with zigakibart.
- Confirmed IgG levels < 3 g/L prior to first study treatment administration in the OLE study.
- Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, from menarche until becoming post-menopausal unless they are using highly effective methods of contraception (failure rate < 1% per year) while taking study treatment and for 24 weeks after stopping study treatment. Women are considered post-menopausal if they have had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate clinical profile (e.g., hormonal profile confirming menopause and/or age-appropriate history of vasomotor symptoms).
- Sexually active males unwilling to use a highly effective methods of contraception during intercourse while taking study treatment and for 24 weeks after stopping study treatment. In addition, male participants must not donate sperm for the time period specified above.
