The submission was based on the results from a phase 3 trial that met its primary endpoint by reducing proteinuria in pegcetacoplan-treated patients by 68% as compared to placebo, the companies added.
C3 glomerulopathy and primary immune complex membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis are two kinds of chronic kidney diseases without approved treatments.
