BI 764198 for Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS)

This study is looking for adults and adolescents (age 12 and older) with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), a kidney condition. The goal is to see if a medicine called BI 764198 can help people with FSGS. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group will receive BI 764198 tablets, and the other will receive a placebo (a tablet that looks the same but contains no medicine). All participants will continue their usual FSGS medications. The study will measure changes in protein levels in your urine (UPCR) over 104 weeks (about 2 years) to see if the treatment is effective. The study is planning to enroll 286 participants, but its current status is unclear.

Study design
This is an interventional study where participants are randomly assigned to receive either BI 764198 or a placebo. The study aims to enroll 286 participants.
What's involved
You would take a tablet once a day for up to 2 years and visit the study site about every 3 months during that time.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The primary outcome is measured at Week 104, which is about 2 years after starting the study.
