Study Summary

This study is an exploratory, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled study with repeated doses of AP1189. The study population will consist of patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy (iMN) and severe proteinuria who are on ACE inhibitor or angiotensin II receptor blocker treatment.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Written informed consent has been obtained prior to initiating any study-specificprocedures

  • Male and female subjects, 18 to 85 years of age diagnosed with iMN within 6 monthsprior to inclusion

  • Diagnosed as anti-PLA2-Receptor positive by local laboratory within 6 months priorto inclusion

  • Severe proteinuria defined by a U-protein/creatinine ratio >3.0 g/g and/orU-albumin/creatinine ratio >2.0 g/g and a P-albumin below the lower normal limit

  • eGFR > 30 ml/min/1.73m2

  • Treated with ACE- inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blocker for a minimum of 1months with a stable systemic arterial blood pressure OR treatment with ACEinhibitors and/or angiotensin receptor blocker was excluded or discontinued due tohypotension, intolerance or other side effect

Only Denmark and Norway:

  • Females of child-bearing potential using reliable means of contraception or arepost-menopausal

  • Females of childbearing potential with negative pregnancy test at screening andbaseline

Only Sweden:

  • Post-menopausal women or women who are surgically sterilized.

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participation in any other study involving investigational drug(s) during the studyand within 4 weeks prior to study entry

  • Clinicial findings that in the opinion of the investigator would suggestcondition(s) other than iMN as a major cause of severe proteinuria

  • Major surgery within 8 weeks prior to screening or planned surgery within 1 monthfollowing randomization

  • Blood pressure with systolic pressure above 160 mmHg and/or diastolic pressure above 100 mmHg despite antihypertensive treatment will in all cases be considered "uncontrolled"

  • Treated with systemic corticosteroids, or other immune suppressive, or immunemodulating compounds within 4 weeks prior to screening and during the entiretreatment period and until the final visit

  • Treated with rituximab within 12 months of screening

  • Evidence of active malignant disease

  • Uncontrolled disease states, such as asthma, psoriasis, or inflammatory boweldisease where flares are commonly treated with oral or parenteral corticosteroids

  • Evidence of serious uncontrolled concomitant cardiovascular, nervous system,pulmonary, renal, hepatic, endocrine or gastrointestinal disease

  • Pregnant women or nursing mothers

  • History of alcohol, drug, or chemical abuse within the 6 months prior to screening

  • Any condition that in the view of the investigator would suggest that the patient isunable to comply with study protocol and procedures

Only Sweden:

  • Females of child-bearing potential.

Study Description

This study is an exploratory, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled study with repeated doses of AP1189. The study population will consist of patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy (iMN) and severe proteinuria who are on ACE inhibitor or angiotensin II receptor blocker treatment.

Following a successful screening, subjects who fulfill the enrollment criteria will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio in group A and B:

  • Group A (12 subjects): AP1189 dose 100 mg, once daily for 12 weeks (28 days) as an add-on to any ongoing treatment, including ACE inhibitors/ angiotensin II receptor blocker

  • Group B (6 subjects): placebo for 12 weeks (28 days) as an add-on to any ongoing treatment including ACE inhibitors/ angiotensin II receptor blocker.
