Climb Bio reports 70% mean PLA2R antibody reduction at Week 12 in pMN trial
Climb Bio presented initial PrisMN Phase 2 data for budoprutug in primary membranous nephropathy at ASN Kidney Week 2026, with the 200 mg cohort showing B-cell depletion, PLA2R antibody reduction and immunologic remission at Week 12. The results were consistent with Phase 1b data, and the 600 mg cohort showed greater drug exposure and deeper B-cell suppression at Week 4, but the cohorts are small and follow-up is limited, and the company expects additional Phase 2 data in 2027.
Key points
- 200 mg cohort: mean PLA2R antibody reduction of 70% at Week 12; five of 13 patients (38%) achieved immunologic remission
- Patients with baseline PLA2R antibody levels below 175 RU/mL had a mean reduction of 80% at Week 12
- 600 mg cohort: mean peripheral CD20+ B-cell suppression of 98% at Week 4, compared with 74% at 200 mg
- Budoprutug was generally well tolerated in the 200 mg and 600 mg cohorts; no treatment-related serious adverse events were reported
