New hope for transplant patients: drug targets kidney protein leak
NCT ID NCT07219121
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a drug called sparsentan for people who have protein in their urine after a kidney transplant due to IgA nephropathy or FSGS. About 20 adults will take the drug once daily for 36 weeks to see if it safely reduces protein levels and protects kidney function. The goal is to better control the disease and improve long-term transplant health.
