Conditions

C3 Glomerulopathy, IgA Nephropathy

Brief summary

The purpose of AROC3-1001 is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and/or pharmacodynamics in adult healthy volunteers (HVs) and in adult patients with complement-mediated renal disease (C3 Glomerulopathy \[C3G\] and IgA Nephropathy \[IgAN\]). In Part 1 of the study, HVs will receive either one or two doses of ARO-C3 or placebo. In Part 2 of the study, adult patients with C3G/IgAN will receive 3 open-label doses of ARO-C3. Dose levels in Part 2 will be determined based on cumulative safety and pharmacodynamic data from Part 1.

Masking description

Part 1, participants are randomized to receive either ARO-C3 or placebo. Participants,care providers, investigator and outcomes assessors are all blinded to treatment assignment. Part 2 in patients with C3G or IgAN is open-label and there is no masking.

Inclusion criteria

(All Participants): * Willing to provide written informed consent and to comply with study requirements * Female participants must be non-pregnant/non-lactating * Healthy volunteers must be willing to be vaccinated with a meningococcal and pneumococcal vaccine.

Males must not donate sperm during the study and for at least 12 weeks following the end of the study or last dose of study drug, whichever is later. * No abnormal finding of clinical relevance at the Screening evaluation that, in the opinion of the investigator, could adversely impact participant safety or study results Inclusion Criteria (C3G and IgAN Participants): * Diagnosis of C3G or IgAN * Clinical evidence of ongoing disease based on significant proteinuria * Estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥30 mL/Min/1.73 m2 at Screening and currently not on dialysis * Must be on a maximally recommended or tolerated dose of an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB)
