Study Overview

Brief Summary

Safety and Efficacy of BION-1301 in Adults with IgA Nephropathy.

Approximately 272 patients with eGFR greater than or equal to 30 mL/min/1.73m2 and with biopsy-proven IgAN will be randomized to receive 600mg Q2W BION-1301 or a matched placebo for 104 weeks. An additional exploratory cohort, not included in the primary analysis, will be comprised of approximately 20 subjects (10 subjects per arm) with biopsy-confirmed IgAN and eGFR of greater than or equal to 20 to less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of BION-1301 versus placebo on proteinuria in adults with IgA nephropathy.

Subjects will have assessments of safety and efficacy for 2.5 years (up to 134 weeks). To facilitate study participation over this time period, where allowed by local regulations, options for remote study visits using telemedicine and home health may be offered.

  • A pseudonymized copy of the report must be available for review.
  • If biopsy report within 10 years is not available, re-biopsy may be permitted upon discussion with the Medical Monitor.
  • eGFR greater than or equal to 30 mL/min/1.73m2 at Screening based on the 2021 CKD-EPI equation (for the exploratory cohort only: eGFR of greater than or equal to 20 to less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2).
  • Total urine protein greater than or equal to 1.0 g/day and UPCR greater than or equal to 0.7 g/g, as measured from an adequate 24hour urine collection at Screening by a central laboratory.
  • Stable on a maximally tolerated dose of ACEi/ARB for at least 12 weeks prior to Screening or intolerant to ACEi/ARB; may also be on a stable and well tolerated dose of SGLT2i and/or ERAs/MRAs for at least 12 weeks prior to Screening for the treatment of IgAN.
  • Body mass index (BMI) between 18 and 40 kg/m
  • Screening weight of at least 50 kg.

  • Received an investigational new drug within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, prior to Screening.
  • Received systemic corticosteroid therapy including budesonide (Tarpeyo/Kinpeygo) for more than 14 days within 12 weeks prior to Screening.
  • Use of systemic immunosuppressant medications
  • Current severe infection requiring antimicrobials or history of recurrent, severe, infections as determined by the Investigator.
  • Received a live vaccination within 12 weeks prior to Screening or plan to have a live vaccination within 6 months after the last dose of study drug.
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding or intent to become pregnant or to donate sperm during the study period and until 24 weeks after last dose.
  • Participation in another interventional trial with an investigational agent/device is prohibited during the course of this study.
