New treatment option for Primary Membranous Nephropathy
Official title Study of ALXN1920 in Adult Participants With Primary Membranous Nephropathy (PMN)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07157787
What this study is testing
What is ALXN1920?
ALXN1920 is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for primary membranous nephropathy.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of ALXN1920 compared with placebo in participants with PMN who are at a high risk for disease progression using 24-hour urine protein creatinine ratio (UPCR).
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug.
