The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability, of open label iptacopan in primary IgA nephropathy participants who have completed either the CLNP023X2203 or CLNP023A2301 clinical trials. The open-label design of the current study is appropriate to provide study participants the opportunity to receive treatment with iptacopan until marketing authorizations are received and the drug product becomes commercially available while enabling collection of long-term safety and tolerability data for the investigational drug. Furthermore efficacy assessments conducted every 6 months will afford the opportunity to evaluate the clinical effects of iptacopan on long-term disease progression.
This is an open-label, non-randomized, multicenter roll-over extension program (REP) to: * CLNP023X2203, a Phase II trial investigating the dose ranging effects of LNP023 on efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety and tolerability in primary IgAN patients, and * CLNP023A2301, a Phase III trial, investigating the efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety and tolerability of LNP023 in patients with primary IgAN. Subjects completing the CLNP023X2203 and CLNP023A2301 trials on study drug, who want to continue treatment and who meet the inclusion/exclus…
