ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying the effectiveness and safety of three different treatments—frexalimab, SAR442970, and rilzabrutinib—in patients aged 16 to 75 years with specific kidney conditions called primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and minimal change disease (MCD). The main goal is to see how these treatments can reduce protein in the urine, which is a sign of kidney problems, and help patients achieve remission from nephrotic syndrome, a condition that can cause swelling and other health issues.
To be eligible for the trial, participants must have a confirmed diagnosis of FSGS or MCD, show a certain level of protein in their urine, and have stable kidney function. They should also have previously responded well to steroid treatments. The study will last up to 76 weeks, with participants receiving treatment for 24 weeks and attending up to 18 study visits. It's important to note that those with other types of kidney disease or those on certain medications may not be eligible. This trial is a chance for patients to contribute to research that could improve future treatments for these kidney conditions.
