PODOMOUNT-Basket, a study to test whether BI 764198 helps adults and adolescents with different types of kidney disease
EU CTIS ID: 2025-523425-17-00
What this study is testing
The primary objective is to estimate the mean relative change from baseline to Week 20 in 24-hr urinary protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR, measured in mg/g) in participants in each of the four glomerular disease cohorts (i.e., sFSGS, TR-pMCD, Alport Syndrome, or TR-pMN), some of whom will be on background SGLT2i/CNI treatment.
- Therapeutic exploratory (Phase II)

Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- 1. Male or female participants ≥18 years of age (≥12 years of age for TR-pMCD) on the day of signing informed consent/assent (Visit 1)
- 2. Body Mass Index (BMI) of ≤40 kg/m2 at screening visit (Visit 1)
- 3. Weight of ≥40 kg at screening
- 4. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥25 mL/min/1.73 m2 (CKD EPI formula based on serum cystatin C) at screening visit (Visit 1) o For adult participants (≥18); ≥25 mL/min/1.73 m2 (CKD-EPI formula based on serum cystatin C) at the screening visit (Visit 1) o For adolescent participants (<18); ≥25 mL/min/1.73 m2 (CKiD U25 formula using height and serum cystatin C) at the screening visit (Visit1)
- 5. Seated blood pressure (mean of 3 values) SBP ≤160 mmHg (adult participants ≥18) or SBP ≤140 mmHg (participants <18) at the screening visit (Visit 1). A participant with a documented history of white coat hypertension may be included as long as the participant is considered medically stable by the investigator and “true” blood pressure can be considered to be ≤160 mmHg (adult participants ≥18) or ≤140 mmHg (adolescent participants <18)
- 6. Participants should be treated with angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), at a stable optimised dose for at least 8 weeks prior to the screening visit (Visit 1), with no plan to change the dose until the end of the randomised treatment period (i.e. EoT, Week 20) unless not tolerated or indicated as per the discretion of the investigator
You likely can't join if
- 1. A history of organ transplantation or planned transplantation during the course of the study
- 2. Use of intravenous immunosuppressive agents (e.g. cyclophosphamide, rituximab, obinutuzumab) in the past 6 months prior to screening visit (Visit 1)
- 3. Participants in whom initiation of oral or IV immunosuppression is anticipated during the course of the trial
- 4. Treatment with metformin or dofetilide (MATE1 substrates) within one week prior to randomisation visit (Visit 2) through 5 days after the EoT visit
- 5. Treatment with strong inhibitors or strong inducers of CYP3A4/5 within one week or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) prior to randomisation visit (Visit 2)
- 6. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/aspartate aminotransferase (AST) >3X the upper limit of normal (ULN) at screening visit (Visit 1)

- 7. If treated with (non-steroidal) mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA), endothelin receptor antagonists (ERA), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) or SGLT2i, participants must be on a stable dose for at least 8 weeks prior to the screening visit (Visit 1), preferably with no plan to change the dose until the end of the randomised double-blind treatment period (i.e. EoT, Week 20)
- 8. Participants treated with oral immunosuppressive therapy except glucocorticoids (e.g. CNI, mycophenolate mofetil/-sodium, cyclophosphamide) must be on a stable dose for at least 12 weeks prior to the screening visit (Visit 1) with no plans to change their dose during the trial treatment period

- 8. QTc intervals (QTcF) greater than 450 ms in males or greater than 470 ms in females, or any other clinically relevant ECG findings (at the investigator’s discretion) at screening visit (Visit 1)
