5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of IONIS-FB-LRx, an antisense inhibitor of complement factor B messenger ribonucleic acid (CFB mRNA), and to evaluate the effect of IONIS-FB-LRx on plasma factor B (FB) levels and serum AH50, CH50 activity in participants with primary immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy.
Detailed Description
This is a Phase 2, single arm open-label clinical study in up to 25 participants that will consist of a screening period, a 24-week treatment period, an optional treatment extension period of up to an additional 48 weeks, and a 12- week post-treatment follow-up evaluation period.
