Plain-language summary
This study is a randomized, parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled, subcutaneous administration Phase II dose-exploration clinical trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy, safety, PK, PD, and immunogenicity characteristics of SLN12140 at different doses in IgA nephropathy subjects who have previously received standard treatment (the standard treatment drugs allowed in this study include: angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors \[ACEi\], angiotensin II receptor blockers \[ARB\], and sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors \[SGLT2i\]) but have poor control.
The study is divided into four stages, including a screening period of up to 8 weeks, an introduction period of up to 12 weeks, a 40-week double-blind period (including a 36-week treatment period and a 4-week safety follow-up period; all subjects in the three dose groups who are willing to continue treatment and are judged by the investigator to potentially benefit from subsequent treatment will enter the open-label extension period for continued treatment after completing the double-blind period), and a 56-week open-label extension period (all subjects in the three dose groups who are willing to continue treatment and are judged by the investigator to potentially benefit from subsequent treatment will continue SLN12140 at the same dose group \[the optimal dose\], including a 52-week open treatment period and a 4-week safety follow-up period).

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* The subject has fully understood the purpose, nature, methods and potential adverse reactions of this trial, volunteers to participate as a subject, is able to communicate effectively with the investigators, understands and complies with all requirements of this study, and voluntarily signs the Informed Consent Form (ICF) prior to initiation of any study procedures.
* Male and female subjects aged 18 to 80 years (inclusive) at the time of signing the ICF, with body weight ≥ 50 kg for males and ≥ 45 kg for females; body mass index (BMI) 18.0-35.0 kg/m² (inclusive).
* Patients with IgA nephropathy confirmed by biopsy within the past 3 years before screening, with renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis \< 50%.
* Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m² during the screening period, calculated using the 2021 creatinine-based Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation.
* During the screening period, 24-hour urine protein-to-creatinine ratio (24h UPCR) ≥ 1.0 g/g; after completion of the run-in period, UPCR ≥ 0.75 g/g or urine protein excretion (UPE) ≥ 0.75 g/day.
* Must have received standard of care therapy for at least 12 weeks (and at a stable dose for at least 4 weeks) prior to the first dose of study medication, and agree to maintain stable dosing throughout the study period. (Note: Permitted standard of care medications in this study include ACEi/ARB and SGLT2i.)
* Males and women of childbearing potential (WOC…
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?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
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.
