A Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Efficacy With AION-301 Administered by Intravenous Infusion Compared With Placebo Administered by Intravenous Infusion Investigational Intervention in Participants Aged 35 to 75 Years of Age With Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)

Plain-language summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety (good or bad) of giving two AION-301 intravenous (IV) infusions, in adults with Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). It will also help to learn if AION-301 reduces the symptoms of CKD and/or progression. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Do participants have medical problems (adverse events) after receiving two infusions of AION-301?
* Do participants feel better (have reduced and/or delayed CKD symptoms)?
* To learn about how AION-301 works in participants with CKD?
Researchers will compare AION-301 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if AION-301 works to treat Stage 3 CKD.
Participants will:
* Receive two infusions of AION-301 or placebo on two separate days (Day 0 and Day 4).
* Receive oral vitamins at the clinic and to take at home for 90 days.
* Visit the clinic for a minimum of 9 times, over 6 months for checkups and tests, but could be up to 12 times, over 24 months for checkups and tests.

Inclusion Criteria:
Participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply:
* Patient is able to communicate well with the investigator, is capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol, understands all requirements of the study, and understands and signs the written ICF before any study-specific procedure.
* Willing and able to comply with the scheduled visits and treatment plan.
* Either biological sex
* Participant must be 35 to 75 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
* Diagnosis of CKD stage 3, G3 (a and b): persistent eGFR between 30 and 59 mL/min/1.73 m² (at least 2 measures within that range in the preceding 3 months, including the one at screening visit), and persistent increased Albuminuria (at least 2 measures within 3 months, including 1 before screening and 1 at screening (criterion for increased Albuminuria at screening: ≥2 out of 3 repeat daily early morning samples at screening) (UACR ≥ 200 mg/g and \< than 5000 mg/g)
* Treatment with maximum labelled or tolerated dose of a renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) blocking agent including an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), and SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) unless such treatment is contraindicated or not tolerated\*. Treatment dose must be stable for at leas…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
