Description

Live from Kidney Week 2024!

Hosts Neuen and Wadhwani are joined by Prof. Jonathan Barratt to discuss atacicept's 96-week data from ORIGIN OLE, which he presented as a late-breaker at the meeting.

Results of the study indicate atacicept use was associated with sustained reductions across multiple endpoints of interest, including a 66% (SE, 2%) mean reduction in Gd-IgA1 levels, a reduction in percentage of patients with hematuria from baseline (percentage change, 75%; 95% CI, -87% to -59%), and a mean reduction in UPCR of 52% (SE, 5%). The mean eGFR annualized slope was just -0.6 (SE, 0.5) mL/min/1.73m2 per year.

As the discussion unfolds, Barratt explains atacicept’s unique approach of targeting disease-causing cytokines and highlights the drug’s practical benefit as a weekly self-administered injection, making it accessible for long-term patient use. The conversation wraps up with insights into the global impact of ongoing phase 3 trials, the sponsor’s commitment to extended access, and how these steps could redefine outcomes for patients with IgA nephropathy.
