---|---|
Experimental: Lanraplenib 30 mg
Participants receive lanraplenib 30 mg tablet + filgotinib placebo tablet orally once daily for 16 weeks in Blinded Treatment Phase. Participants who achieve ≥ 35% reduction in urinary protein excretion from baseline continue to receive same blinded study treatment for additional 16 weeks. Participants who did not achieve a ≥ 35% reduction in urinary protein excretion will switch treatment. After 32 weeks of blinded treatment, participants who have ≥ 35% reduction in urinary protein excretion from baseline continue their assigned blinded treatment for additional 20 weeks in Extended Blinded Treatment Phase. |
Drug: Lanraplenib
30 mg tablet administered orally once daily
Other Name: GS-9876 Drug: Filgotinib placebo Tablet administered orally once daily |
Experimental: Filgotinib 200 mg
Participants receive filgotinib 200 mg tablet + lanraplenib placebo tablet orally once daily for 16 weeks in Blinded Treatment Phase. Participants who achieve ≥ 35% reduction in urinary protein excretion from baseline continue to receive same blinded study treatment for additional 16 weeks. Participants who did not achieve a ≥ 35% reduction in urinary protein excretion will switch treatment. After 32 weeks of blinded treatment, participants who have ≥ 35% reduction in urinary protein excretion from baseline continue their assigned blinded treatment for additional 20 weeks in Extended Blinded Treatment Phase. |
Drug: Filgotinib
200 mg tablet administered orally once daily
Other Names:
Drug: Lanraplenib placebo Tablet administered orally once daily |
Experimental: Lanraplenib 30 mg to Filgotinib 200 mg
At Week 16, participants who do not achieve a ≥ 35% reduction in urinary protein excretion from baseline to Week 16 switch treatment and receive filgotinib 200 mg + lanraplenib placebo for additional 16 weeks. At Week 32, participants who do not achieve a ≥ 35% reduction in urinary protein excretion from Week 16 to Week 32 can continue whichever treatment that lead to the greatest reduction in urinary protein excretion, or either treatment per investigator's discretion for additional 20 weeks in Extended Blinded Treatment Phase. |
Drug: Filgotinib
200 mg tablet administered orally once daily
Other Names:
Drug: Lanraplenib placebo Tablet administered orally once daily |
Experimental: Filgotinib 200 mg to Lanraplenib 30 mg
At Week 16, participants who do not achieve a ≥ 35% reduction in urinary protein excretion from baseline to Week 16 switch treatment and receive lanraplenib 30 mg + filgotinib placebo for additional 16 weeks. At Week 32, participants who do not achieve a ≥ 35% reduction in urinary protein excretion from Week 16 to Week 32 can continue whichever treatment that lead to the greatest reduction in urinary protein excretion, or either treatment per investigator's discretion for additional 20 weeks in Extended Blinded Treatment Phase. |

- Percent Change in Urine Protein From Baseline (Day 1) to Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 16 ]Urine protein was assessed by urinary protein excretion during a 24-hour urine collection.
- Change From Baseline (Day 1) in Urine Protein at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 16 ]Urine protein was assessed by urinary protein excretion during a 24-hour urine collection.
- Change From Baseline (Day 1) in Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 16 ]
- Change From Baseline (Day 1) in Urine Protein Creatinine Ratio (UPCR) at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Baseline; Week 16 ]UPCR was assessed by urine protein excretion during a 24-hour urine collection.
- Percentage of Participants With Partial Remission at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Week 16 ]Partial Remission was defined as urine protein excretion below < 3 g/day and urine protein excretion decrease by ≥ 50% among participants with baseline (Day 1) nephrotic range proteinuria [urine protein excretion ≥ 3 g/day]; or urine protein excretion decrease by ≥ 50% among participants with subnephrotic range proteinuria [urine protein excretion < 3 g/day]).
- Percentage of Participants With Complete Remission at Week 16 [ Time Frame: Week 16 ]Complete Remission was defined as urine protein excretion below 0.5 g/day, with no hematuria.
