Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of the study is to assess the effect of zigakibart on IgA nephropathy (IgAN) disease progression.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is an open-label multicenter study where participants are randomized into one of two groups, where the only difference between the groups is the on-treatment biopsy time point, end of the first year of treatment (Group A) or at the end of the second year of treatment (Group B).

The total study duration for each participant may be up to 125 weeks, including the maximum screening period (8 weeks), the treatment period (104 weeks), and the safety follow up period (13 weeks).
