The Safety Monitoring Committee has concluded that the repeated usage of povetacicept in the initial IgAN dose group (80 mg injected beneath the skin every four weeks) has thus far proven safe and easily tolerated, with no serious or severe side effects, no incidents of hypogammaglobulinemia (IgG < 3g/L), and no cases of hypersensitivity or reactions related to administration.

The committee has approved an increase in dosage, and registration of the second IgAN dose group (240 mg injected subcutaneously every four weeks) has begun.

"The preliminary safety and pharmacodynamic performance during multiple dose administration of povetacicept, at its lowest dosage in this trial, has offered us cause for optimism," observed Stanford Peng, the President and the head of R&D at Alpine. "We anticipate sharing a more in-depth clinical update in suitable academic gatherings later this year."

About Povetacicept (ALPN-303)

Povetacicept (ALPN-303) is an antagonist that counteracts both BAFF + APRIL. These cytokines are instrumental to the development of several autoimmune conditions through their effects on the activation, differentiation, and/or survival of B cells, especially cells that make antibodies, along with T cells and cells that form the innate immune system. Utilizing a restructured TACI domain, povetacicept has shown greater effectiveness in experimental trials than natural TACI counterparts, as well as other inhibitors of BAFF and/or APRIL. Povetacicept is currently undergoing development for several autoimmune diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus, autoimmune glomerulonephritis, and autoimmune cytopenias.

About RUBY-3

RUBY-3 is a phased 1b/2a clinical study with escalating dosage, different groups, and an open label. It is analyzing the effects of povetacicept on IgA nephropathy, lupus nephritis, and primary membranous nephropathy, where the drug is administered subcutaneously for a maximum duration of 48 weeks. Key conclusions of this study include proteinuria, eGFR, renal response, and disease-specific autoantibodies.
