Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Selonsertib in Participants With Moderate to Advanced Diabetic Kidney Disease

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Diabetic Kidney Disease
Interventions
Drug: SEL
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT04026165
Lead Sponsor
Gilead Sciences
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether selonsertib (SEL) can slow the decline in kidney function in participants with moderate to advanced diabetic kidney disease (DKD).

Detailed Description

Following the screening period, eligible participants will enroll into a Run-in period of at least 5 weeks and receive placebo to match SEL for at least 1 week and then SEL for at least 4 weeks. After completing Run-in period, eligible participants will be randomized and receive either SEL or placebo to match SEL for at least 48 weeks.

Key

Exclusion Criteria

  • Individuals with diagnosis of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY)

  • Body mass index (BMI) > 50 kg/m^2

  • UACR > 5000 mg/g on any measurement during screening

  • End stage kidney disease (ESKD) (i.e., chronic hemodialysis, chronic peritoneal dialysis, or history of kidney transplantation)

  • Anticipated progression to ESKD (need for chronic hemodialysis, chronic peritoneal dialysis or receipt of kidney transplant) within 3 months after enrollment

  • Unstable cardiovascular disease

  • Pregnant or lactating females or planning to become pregnant or breastfeed during the study

  • Concurrent use of either

    1. ACEi and ARB or
    2. Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) or direct renin inhibitor (DRI) in combination with an ACEi or ARB for at least 2 weeks prior to Enrollment
  • Prior or ongoing clinically significant illness, medical condition, surgical history, physical finding, ECG finding, or laboratory abnormality that, in the investigator's opinion, could adversely affect the safety of the individual or impair the assessment of study results

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Treatment-specific Baseline Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate Based on Creatinine (eGFRcr)Treatment-specific Baselines (From enrollment (Visit A) up to 14 days after Visit A for placebo and from Visit C up to 14 days after Visit C for SEL)

The values of eGFRcr were calculated using the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology (CKD-EPI) Creatinine Equation (2009). eGFRcr = 141\*min(Standardized Serum Creatinine (Scr)/kappa, 1) \^alpha\*max(Scr/ kappa, 1)\^(-1.209)\*0.993\^Age\*1.018\[if female\]\*1.159\[if Black\], where kappa=0.7(females) or 0.9(males), alpha=-0.329(females) or -0.411(males). min indicates the minimum of Scr/kappa or 1, max indicates the maximum of Scr/kappa or 1, and age is in years.

Treatment-specific Baselines = the average of Visits A and B values for Placebo, and the average of Visit C and Day 1 values for SEL.

Visit A= enrollment, Visit B= 7-14 days after Visit A, Visit C= 21-28 days after Visit B, and Visit 1= 7-14 days after Visit C.

eGFRcr SlopeTreatment-specific Baselines through Week 84

The values of eGFRcr were calculated using the CKD-EPI Creatinine Equation (2009). eGFRcr = 141\*min(Scr/kappa, 1) \^alpha\*max(Scr/kappa, 1)\^(-1.209)\*0.993\^Age\*1.018\[if female\]\*1.159\[if Black\], where kappa=0.7(females) or 0.9(males), alpha=-0.329(females) or -0.411(males). min indicates the minimum of Scr/kappa or 1, max indicates the maximum of Scr/kappa or 1, and age is in years. Treatment specific baselines for eGFRcr: average of Visit A (enrollment) and Visit B (7-14 days after Visit A) values for Placebo, and average of Visit C (21-28 days after Visit B, and Visit 1 (7-14 days after Visit C) values for SEL.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time From Randomization to First Occurrence of a Kidney Clinical Event: Event Rate Per 100 Participant-years for First Occurrence of Kidney Clinical EventFrom randomization up to Week 101

Kidney clinical events were defined as any of the following events: confirmed ≥ 40% decline in eGFRcr from baseline, or kidney failure (dialysis performed for at least 4 weeks, kidney transplantation, or confirmed decrease in eGFRcr to \< 15 mL/min/1.73 m\^2 for participants without dialysis or kidney transplantation), or death due to kidney disease. This outcome measure was analyzed using event rate per 100 participant-years for first occurrence of kidney clinical event. Participant year was calculated as total follow-up duration across all participants in a given group. Follow-up duration was defined as time from Randomization to the earliest of study completion, premature study discontinuation, death, or event of interest in each row.

Pre-run-in Baseline Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate Based on Cystatin C (eGFRcys)Pre-run-in Baseline (Pre-run in Baseline = Average of visit A (Enrollment) and Visit B (7-14 days after Visit A) eGFRcys values)

eGFRcys = Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate calculated by CKD-EPI Cystatin C Equation (2012). eGFR = 133\*min(Standardized Serum Cystatin (Scys)/0.8, 1) \^(-0.499)\*max(Scys/0.8, 1)\^(-1.328)\*0.996\^Age\*0.932\[if female\]. min indicates the minimum of Scys/0.8 or 1, max indicates the maximum of Scr/0.8 or 1, and age is in years.

eGFRcys SlopePre-run-in Baseline through Week 84

eGFRcys = Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate calculated by CKD-EPI Cystatin C Equation (2012). eGFR = 133\*min(Scys/0.8, 1) \^(-0.499)\*max(Scys/0.8, 1)\^(-1.328)\*0.996\^Age\*0.932\[if female\]. min indicates the minimum of Scys/0.8 or 1, max indicates the maximum of Scr/0.8 or 1, and age is in years. Pre-run in Baseline = Average of visit A (Enrollment) and Visit B (7-14 days after Visit A) eGFRcys values.

Percentage of Participants With Kidney Clinical Events at Week 48Week 48

Kidney clinical events were defined as any of the following events: confirmed ≥ 40% decline in eGFRcr from baseline, or kidney failure (dialysis performed for at least 4 weeks, kidney transplantation, or confirmed decrease in eGFRcr to \< 15 mL/min/1.73 m\^2 for participants without dialysis or kidney transplantation), or death due to kidney disease.
