Kidney drug study: how avacopan behaves in dialysis patients
NCT ID NCT06468826
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed Phase 1 study looked at how the drug avacopan is processed in 13 people with normal kidney function and those with end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis. Researchers measured drug levels in the blood and dialysis fluid after a single dose. The goal was to understand safety and how the body handles the drug, not to treat the disease.
