New drug aims to slow kidney damage in IgA nephropathy

NCT ID NCT07474636

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This Phase 2 trial tests an experimental drug called HS-10542 in 90 adults with IgA nephropathy, a kidney disease that can lead to kidney failure. Participants will receive either a high dose, low dose, or placebo for a set period. The main goal is to see if the drug reduces protein in the urine, a sign of kidney damage.

Active substance

HS-10542 capsules

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option to control IgA nephropathy and reduce protein leakage in urine, potentially slowing kidney decline.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 90 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The drug may not work better than placebo, and side effects are still being studied.
