A double-blind study for patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy in treatment with ACE inhibor or angiotensin II receptor blockers. The trial will take place in hospitals in Europe. To better assess the mechanism of action of AP1189, the compound is compared to an inactive substance (placebo). The purpose of the trial is to investigate the safety of the new drug, its tolerability, uptake, metabolism, distribution, and excretion in the body (pharmacokinetics) and its effect

An exploratory, randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of AP1189 daily doses versus placebo administered for 4 weeks as an add-on to patients, in ACE inhibitor or angiotensin II receptor blocker treatment, with idiopathic membranous nephropathy - SynAct-CS003

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare the safety of AP1189 against placebo by evaluating adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), vital signs, electrocardiograms and laboratory abnormalities. The result of 4 weeks of treatment on 24 hours urinary protein excretion as expressed as changes in urine excretion from baseline to the end of the four weeks treatment period (baseline is defined as 24 h urinary protein excretion determined prior to dosing with AP1189 or placebo);Secondary Objective: Result of 4 weeks treatment (Baseline to end of 4 weeks): On 24 hours urinary albumin excretion, expressed as changes in urine excretion. On fractional urine excretion of albumin (FEAlb) compared to baseline where changes in FEAlb is expressed in % compared to baseline levels. On changes in plasma albumin. No of subjects showing partial/complete remission (defined in the protocol) on the last day of treatment and four weeks after the last dose administered. On estimated GFR (eGFR) expressed as changes in GFR. On 24 hours urinary creatinine clearance CCr expressed as changes in CCr. Changes in urinary protein/albumin, P-albumin, eGFR and CCr at the four weeks post-dosing follow up visit, compared to the values at the end of dosing and baseline. The pharmacokinetic of AP1189 following the first and last day of dosing. ;Primary end point(s): Primary Safety Objective and Endpoints: To compare the safety of AP1189 against placebo by evaluating adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), vital signs, electrocardiograms and laboratory abnormalities. Primary Efficacy Objective and Endpoints: The result of 4 weeks of treatment on 24 hours urinary protein excretion as expressed as changes in urine excretion from baseline to the end of the four weeks treatment period (baseline is defined as 24 h urinary protein excretion determined prior to dosing with AP1189 or placebo). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: AE and SAE will be registered at all visits/phone calls and
