About this trial
The study will assess how ARGX-121 affects immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) disease outcomes, such as renal function, how it is distributed and eliminated from the body, and how the immune system responds in adults with IgAN.
While in the study, participants will continue to receive their usual medical care and medications for IgA nephropathy, unless the study doctor confirms otherwise.
The study will include a double blinded period, followed by an active drug period, and conclude with a follow up period. The total study duration for participants will be approximately 72 weeks, with a maximum of 52 weeks on ARGX-121.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change in proteinuria from baseline to week 24 as measured by the log-transformed urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR) derived from 24-h urine collection.
UPCR is urine protein-to-creatinine ratio
Secondary outcomes
Total annualized rate of change (slope) in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at week 52
Incidence of Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
Cmax (ARGX-121 maximum observed concentration) in serum
Percentage change in total IgA from baseline over time in serum
