Study Details

This was a randomized, open-label, two arm, parallel group, proof-of-concept, nonconfirmatory study evaluating the efficacy and safety of LNP023 compared with rituximab in subjects with Idiopathic (primary) membranous nephropathy (iMN) who are at high risk of disease progression defined on the basis of anti- Phospholipase A2 Receptor (PLA2R) antibody titer ≥ 60 RU/mL and proteinuria with urine protein (UP) ≥ 3.5 g/24h.
