A Phase 2 Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Praliciguat in Patients With Biopsy-Confirmed Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of praliciguat in adults with biopsy-confirmed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive praliciguat or placebo for initial 24 week treatment period. Following this double-blind period, all participants will receive praliciguat in an open-label extension for an additional 24 weeks.
• UPCR ≥1 (g/g) during screening.
• On maximally tolerated ACEi or ARB per principal investigator discretion within 1 month of informed consent.
• Estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥25 milliliters per minute per 1.73 square meters by Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation.
• Kidney biopsy within 3 years of screening consistent with FSGS or documentation of a genetic mutation in a podocyte protein associated with FSGS.
