New drug aimed at kidney disease shows promise in early trial
NCT ID NCT07096843
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This phase 2 trial is testing a new drug, budoprutug (also known as TNT119), in 45 people with primary membranous nephropathy, a kidney disease that can lead to kidney failure. The study aims to see if the drug is safe and can help patients achieve remission. Participants receive the drug as an IV infusion on four separate days over about six months.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- budoprutug (TNT119)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for primary membranous nephropathy, potentially helping patients achieve remission and avoid long-term kidney damage.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase, open-label trial with only 45 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug may cause side effects or fail to show clear benefit.
