Clinical Study on the Efficacy and Safety of Telitacicept in the Treatment of Pediatric IgA Nephropathy or IgA Vasculitis Nephritis
124 participantsStarted 2025-08-01
Plain-language summary
This clinical trial is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized controlled study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Telitacicept, a novel biologic agent, in treating pediatric IgA Nephropathy (IgAN) and IgA Vasculitis Nephritis (IgAVN). The study plans to enroll 124 children aged 5-18, divided into a test group (standard therapy + Telitacicept) and a control group (standard therapy alone), with a 24-week treatment period. The primary endpoint is the change in 24-hour urine protein levels at week 24, while secondary outcomes include UPCR (urine protein-to-creatinine ratio), eGFR, and drug safety.

Inclusion Criteria:
* Diagnosed with IgA nephropathy (IgAN) or IgA vasculitis nephritis (IgAVN) Aged 5 to 18 years Weight ≥25 kg Moderate or heavy proteinuria At enrollment, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥30 mL/min/1.73m² calculated using the Schwartz formula (36.5 × height \[cm\] / serum creatinine \[μmol/L\]).
Willing to sign the informed consent form
Exclusion Criteria:
* There is an ongoing infection that requires antiviral drugs or antibiotics for treatment.
The patient has received other B cell-targeting biologics within the three months prior to enrollment.
Patients with uncontrolled severe hypertension or diabetes. Individuals with other autoimmune diseases, primary immunodeficiencies, or tumors.
A history of organ transplantation. Patients with chronic active infections, such as Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, or Mycobacterium tuberculosis, whose disease state may be exacerbated by the use of steroids and immunosuppressive agents.
Patients with severe liver failure, heart failure, or end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
Any other medical conditions that may place the patient at increased risk by participating in this study.
Individuals deemed by the investigator as unsuitable for participation in this study.
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?
