Study to Evaluate the Impact of Iptacopan on Top of SOC on Biopsy Changes in Kidneys of Adult Patients With IgAN
NCT06797518 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
A study to investigate the impact of iptacopan treatment on the underlying immunopathology in patients with IgAN by assessing changes in key clinical and molecular markers from baseline to 9 months. The study aims to provide insights into the treatment's systemic and kidney-specific aspects by quantifying the change in mesangial C3c containing fragments deposition, as an indicator of complement activation, and evaluating a variety of biomarkers related to kidney function, damage, and disease progression, including but not limited to Oxford MEST-C score.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06797518
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06797518 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as Phase 2, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 20 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Novartis Pharmaceuticals, which has 792 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Immunoglobulin A Nephropathy appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Iptacopan is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06797518 reports 14 study locations spanning 10 distinct geographic areas — top geographies include Other, Ohio, Alabama. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll. Verify current status, eligibility criteria, and contact details directly at ClinicalTrials.gov, and discuss any participation decision with your own healthcare provider.
