NCT06982040

Brief Summary

NTQ5082 is a small molecule inhibitor of complement factor B (CFB) that inhibits the enzymatic activity of CFB, thereby blocking the alternative pathway of the complement activation cascade. It is being clinically developed for the treatment of primary IgA nephropathy The main objectives of the study were to assess the efficacy and safety of NTQ5082 capsules in the treatment of patients with primary IgA nephropathy.

  • History of gastrointestinal surgery potentially altering drug absorption/distribution/metabolism/excretion, severe gastrointestinal disorders, or conditions causing dysphagia/recurrent vomiting that may interfere with oral medication intake.
  • Major trauma/surgery within 12 weeks before screening or planned major surgery during the study.
  • Previous bone marrow/hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or solid organ transplantation (e.g., heart, lung, kidney, liver).
  • Known/suspected hereditary complement deficiency, or diagnosed primary/severe secondary immunodeficiency.
