  • Ages 18-65
  • All Genders

Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of AZD2373 in participants diagnosed with APOL1-Mediated Kidney Disease (AMKD) who are homozygotes or compound heterozygotes for APOL1 high-risk genotypes (G1 and G2). The primary hypothesis to be evaluated is that AZD2373, compared with placebo, will result in a greater reduction in UACR as assessed by the relative change from Baseline in UACR at Week 30.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age: Male and female participants aged 18 to 65 years, inclusive at the time ofinformed consent.

  • Participants who have high-risk APOL1 genotype (G1/G1; G1/G2; G2/G2). The screeningperiod can be extended if there are delays related to the shipment, handling, orprocessing of genotype results.

  • A geometric mean UACR ≥ 300 mg/g calculated based on the mean of readings taken from 3 FMV urine samples collected on 3 consecutive days. Since the mean will be assessedfor eligibility, any of the 3 readings may fall below 300 mg/g.

  • eGFR ≥ 25 mL/min/1.73m2.

  • Contraceptive use by males or females should be consistent with local regulationsregarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.

  • Capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with therequirements and restrictions listed in the ICF and in this protocol.

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants with diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes mellitus.

  • Body Mass Index > 45 kg/m2.

  • SBP > 180 mmHg/DBP > 110 mmHg (measured when the participant is considered to be atsteady state, and preferably when they have taken their BP medications that sameday).

  • QTcF > 470 ms.

  • Acute coronary syndrome/Acute myocardial infraction +/- coronary intervention withPercutaneous coronary intervention or Coronary artery bypass grafting within 6months.

  • Transient ischaemic attack/ stroke within 3 months.

  • High second to third degree AV block or clinically significant sinus nodedysfunction untreated with pacemaker.

  • A history of ventricular arrhythmias requiring treatment.

  • Participants with Type 2 diabetes mellitus must be excluded if ANY of the followingconditions are present:

  1. Current or any past use of insulin

  2. Screening Haemoglobin A1c > 8.0%

  3. Receiving more than one oral anti-hyperglycaemic agent (excluding SGLTinhibitors which can be taken in addition to one other oral anti-hyperglycaemicagent).

  • Participant on kidney replacement therapy (dialysis or kidney transplant) or anyother organ transplant.

  • History or serologic evidence of autoimmune-mediated glomerular disease includingbut not limited to: lupus nephritis (positive lupus serology), ANCA associatedvasculitis (antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody), membranous nephropathy (anti-phospholipase A2 receptor antibody or other autoantibody associated withmembranous nephropathy), anti-GBM disease (anti-GBM antibody), or IgA nephropathy.

  • Another underlying cause of kidney disease that is not associated with APOL1,including but not limited to polycystic kidney disease or, congenital anomalies ofthe kidney and urinary tract.

  • History of a diagnosed coagulopathy, a major unexplained bleeding event, or otherhigh-risk bleeding diathesis.

Study Description

This is a Phase 2b study to assess efficacy and safety of AZD2373 involving 3 study treatment arms where participants and study personnel including study investigators are blinded to the assigned treatment.

Participants with 300 mg/g or greater UACR and eGFR ≥ 25mL/min/1.73m2 will be recruited into the study. Participants on kidney replacement therapy (dialysis or kidney transplant) or any other organ transplant will be excluded.

All participants will remain in the study on treatment until the last participant has completed 30 weeks of treatment. The treatment duration will be up to minimum of 30 weeks of study treatment.

Approximately 96 participants will be randomized to study intervention (approximately 32 participants in each treatment group).
