Inclusion Criteria

- Male and female participants age >/= 18 and -Diagnosis of C3G as confirmed by renal biopsy within 12 months prior to enrollment
- Prior to randomization, all participants must have been on a maximally recommended or tolerated dose of an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) for at least 90 days. The doses of other antiproteinuric medications including mycophenolic acids, corticosteroids, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists should be stable for at least 90 days prior to randomization.
- Reduced serum C3 (defined as less than 0.85 x lower limit of the central laboratory normal range) at Screening.
- UPCR >/= 1.0 g/g sampled from the first morning void urine sample at Day -75 and Day -15.
- Estimated GFR (using the CKD-EPI formula) or measured GFR >/= 30 ml/min/1.73m2 at Screening and Day -15.
- Vaccination against Neisseria meningitidis infection prior to the start of study treatment. Vaccination against Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae infections should be given, if available and according to local regulations.

Exclusion Criteria

- Participants who have received any cell or organ transplantation, including kidney transplantation.

- A history of recurrent invasive infections caused by encapsulated organisms, e.g., N. meningitidis and S. pneumoniae.
- The use of inhibitors of complement factors (e.g., Factor B, Factor D, C3 inhibitors, anti Complement 5 (C5) antibodies, C5a receptor antagonists) within 6 months prior to the Screening visit.
- The use of immunosuppressants (except mycophenolic acids),
cyclophosphamide or systemic corticosteroids at a dose >7.5 mg/day (or equivalent for a similar medication) within 90 days of study drug administration.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To demonstrate the superiority of iptacopan compared to placebo in reducing proteinuria.;Primary end point(s): Log-transformed ratio to baseline in UPCR (sampled from a 24-hour urine collection);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6 months;Secondary Objective: - To demonstrate the superiority of iptacopan vs. placebo in improving eGFR.<br>- To demonstrate the superiority of iptacopan vs. placebo in the proportion of participants who achieved a composite renal endpoint.<br>- To demonstrate the effect of iptacopan vs placebo in reducing glomerular inflammation in the kidney.<br>- To assess the effect of iptacopan compared to placebo in improvement of patient reported fatigue.<br>- To evaluate the safety and tolerability of iptacopan compared to placebo
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): - Change from baseline in eGFR <br>- A participant meets the requirements of the composite renal endpoint if he/she satisfies: (1) a stable or improved eGFR compared to the baseline visit (</=15% reduction in eGFR), and (2) a >/=50% reduction in UPCR compared to the baseline visit. <br>- Change from baseline in disease total activity score in a renal biopsy.<br>- Change in the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT Fatigue) score.<br>- Occurrence of clinically significant vital signs, ECGs, and safety laboratory measurements, as well as adverse events (AEs), AEs of special interest, and study drug discontinuation due to an AE.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6 months
