Study of Safety and Efficacy of LNP023 in Patients With Kidney Disease Caused by Inflammation

This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, dose-ranging, parallel-group study with an adaptive design (Part 1 informed the design adaptations for Part 2). In Part 1, three doses of LNP023 (10 mg, 50 mg, and 200 mg) vs. placebo control were compared; In Part 2, four doses of LNP023 (10 mg, 50 mg, 100 mg, and 200 mg) vs. placebo control were compared. The study comprised a run-in phase in order that patients were on stable and maximally tolerated dose of Angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers (ARB) for at least 90 days, a 90 days treatment phase in Part 1; a 180 days treatment phase in Part 2 and a 90 days follow-up phase in both Parts 1 and 2.
