A Phase 2, Multicenter, Double-Blind, Parallel Dosing, Randomized Study of Fresolimumab or Placebo in Patients With Steroid-Resistant Primary Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis

The primary objectives of this trial are as follows:

- to compare the achievement of a partial remission (PR) or complete remission (CR) in
urinary protein: creatinine ratio (Up/c ratio) in patients treated with fresolimumab
versus placebo

- to compare the safety profile of patients treated with fresolimumab versus placebo

The secondary objectives are as follows:

- To compare the reduction in proteinuria in patients treated with fresolimumab versus
placebo

- To evaluate fresolimumab dose-dependent reduction in proteinuria

- To compare the change in renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR])
in patients treated with fresolimumab versus placebo

- To evaluate the multiple-dose pharmacokinetics of fresolimumab


Inclusion Criteria:

- The patient's renal biopsy is consistent with the diagnosis of primary Focal
Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) including all histological subtypes.

- The patient has an eGFR ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2

- The patient has a urinary total protein:creatinine ratio ≥ 3 mg protein/mg creatinine

- In the opinion of the Investigator, the patient has steroid-resistant FSGS. The
patient must have been treated for FSGS with a course of high-dose steroid therapy
for a minimum of 4 weeks

- The patient has been treated with an ACEi (angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor)
and/or ARB (angiotensin receptor blocker) at a stable dose for a minimum of 4 weeks
prior to Visit 2 (treatment start)

Exclusion Criteria:

- The patient has FSGS which in the Investigator's opinion is secondary to another
condition

- The patient has been taking prednisone at a dose > 10 mg/day (or equivalent dose of
an alternative glucocorticoid) within 4 weeks prior to Visit 1 (Screening Visit).

- The patient has received any other systemically administered immunosuppressive drugs
(other than glucocorticoids) within 8 weeks prior to Visit 1.

- The patient has received rituximab within 6 months prior to Visit 1.

- The patient has a history of organ transplantation.
