Brief Summary
This was a 28-week, open-label, multicenter, single-group Phase 2 exploratory study to determine the safety and effect of sparsentan in participants with IgAN who are at risk of disease progression to kidney failure despite being on both stable RAASi and SGLT2 inhibitor treatment for at least 12 weeks prior to study entry

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Aged ≥18 years at the time of signing the informed consent.
- Biopsy-proven IgAN. The biopsy may have been performed at any time in the past.
- UA/C ≥0.3 g/g at screening
- An eGFR value of ≥25 mL/min/1.73m\^2 at screening.
- On a stable dose of an SGLT2 inhibitor for at least 12 weeks prior to screening.
- On a stable dose of ACEI and/or ARB therapy for at least 12 weeks prior to screening that is:
- The participant's maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and
- at least one half of the maximum labeled dose (MLD)
- Systolic BP must be ≤160 mmHg, and diastolic BP must be ≤110 mmHg at screening.
- For participants receiving chronic low dose systemic corticosteroids (defined as ≤10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent), or an enteric formulation of budesonide and/or a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA), the dosage must be stable for ≥12 weeks prior to screening.
You may not qualify if:
- IgAN secondary to another condition or immunoglobulin A (IgA) vasculitis.
- Undergone any organ transplant, with the exception of corneal transplants.
- Documented history of heart failure.
- Taking high dose (defined as \>10 mg/day prednisone) or other any systemic immunosuppressive medications within 12 weeks of prior to screening.
- Has clinically significant cerebrovascular disease (transient ischemic attack or stroke) and/or coronary artery disease (hospitalization for myocardial infarction unstable angina, new onset of angina with positive functional tests, coronary angiogram revealing stenosis, or a coronary revascularization procedure) within 3 months prior to screening.
- Has jaundice, hepatitis, or known hepatobiliary disease (excluding asymptomatic cholelithiasis), or ALT and/or AST \>2 times the ULN range at screening.
- Has a history of malignancy other than adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer or cervical carcinoma within the past 2 years.
- Has a history of serious side effect or allergic response to any AngII antagonist, ERA or sparsentan, or has a hypersensitivity to any of the excipients in the study intervention.
- Requires any of the prohibited concomitant medications.
- Treatment with sparsentan within 12 weeks prior to screening
- Has participated in a study of another investigational product within 28 days prior to screening or plans to participate in such a study during the course of this study.
- Has a screening hematocrit value \<27% (0.27 Volume/Volume) or hemoglobin value \<9 g/dL (90 g/L).
- Has a screening potassium value of \>5.5 mEq/L (5.5 mmol/L).
- Is pregnant, plans to become pregnant during the course of the study, or is breastfeeding.
- The participant, in the opinion of the Investigator, is unable to adhere to the requirements of the study, including the ability to swallow the study intervention capsules whole.
