To evaluate the efficacy of 12 months of oral ACH-0144471 in patients with C3G or IC-MPGN based on: • Histologic scoring and proteinuria |
|

E.2.3.1 | Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives |
A sub-study is being conducted to evaluate the effects of ACH-0144471 on renal pathology. For participants in the renal biopsy sub-study, biopsies will be obtained after approximately 6 and/or 24 months of treatment, as described in the Schedule of Assessments, to allow evaluation of changes in renal pathology. The biopsy at the end of the treatment period should be performed during the last 2 weeks of study drug treatment |
