Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.
Prior treatment
- Regular consumption of alcohol within 6 months prior to Screening, or use of soft drugs (such as marijuana) within 3 months prior to Screening, or hard drugs (such as cocaine and phencyclidine) within 1 year prior to Screening and/or positive blood or urine test results for drugs of abuse or alcohol at Screening or Admission
- Participated in any other study in which receipt of an investigational new drug, or investigational device occurred within 28 days, or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) of first dose of study drug in the present study
- Received systemic corticosteroid therapy (\> 10 mg/day of prednisone or equivalent) or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 3 months prior to the first dose of study drug
- PART 4 Eligibility Criteria for Re-treatment Due to Evidence of Disease Progression
- (Option 1) Inclusion Criteria for Re-treatment Due to Evidence of Disease Progression
- Based on the Investigator's judgment, the participant would not benefit from resuming treatment with BION-1301 or there is a safety concern for the individual participant which outweighs the expected benefit from resuming treatment.
- Received systemic corticosteroid therapy, including budesonide, for \>14 days within 3 months prior to the first dose of Part 4 for the treatment of IgAN
- Received any other form of immunosuppressive therapy such as, but not limited to mycophenolate mofetil, azathioprine, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, rituximab, cyclophosphamide, etc) within 3 months prior to the first dose of Part 4 study drug
- Received investigational products for the treatment of IgAN, other than BIO-1301
- Received newly approved immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory therapy for the treatment of IgAN including but not limited to other anti-APRIL therapies and iptacopan
- Eligibility Criteria for Optional Re-treatment (Option 2)
- Based on the Investigator's judgment, the participant would not benefit from resuming treatment with BION-1301 or there is a safety concern for the individual participant which outweighs the expected benefit from resuming treatment.
- Received systemic corticosteroid therapy, including budesonide, for \>14 days within 3 months prior to the first dose in Part 4 for the treatment of IgAN
- Received any other form of immunosuppressive therapy (such as, but not limited to mycophenolate mofetil, azathioprine, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, rituximab, cyclophosphamide, etc) within 3 months prior to the first dose of Part 4 study drug
- Received investigational products for the treatment of IgAN, other than BIO-1301
- Received newly approved immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory therapy for the treatment of IgAN including but not limited to other anti-APRIL therapies and iptacopan
Other illness
- History or evidence of a clinically significant disorder, condition, or disease that could pose a risk to participant safety or interfere with the study, or would make the participant unsuitable for participation, eg, respiratory, renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, hematological, lymphatic, neurological, cardiovascular, or psychiatric disease
- Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to any component of BION-1301, or history of severe hypersensitivity reaction to any monoclonal antibody
Lab values
- Donated blood in the 3 months prior to the first dose of study drug, plasma in the 7 days prior to the first dose of study drug, or platelets in the 6 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug
- Female who is breastfeeding or who has a positive serum pregnancy test at Screening or a positive urine pregnancy test on Day -1
- Donated blood in the 3 months prior to the first dose of study drug; plasma in the 7 days prior to the first dose of study drug; or platelets in the 6 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug
- UPCR ≥ 0.5 g/g AND ≥ 30% increase from EOT (Week 124). Both proteinuria criteria must be met by a 24-hour urine assessment during the 52-week follow-up period. In addition to the scheduled assessments, investigators may order periodic FMV assessments (for example monthly) to follow a participant more closely. Based on an off-schedule FMV result, or other laboratory or clinical evidence, investigators may order an off-schedule 24-urine collection to confirm disease progression.
