Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - Placebo Oral Capsule
Treatment: Drugs - Bardoxolone Methyl

Experimental: Phase 2 Bardoxolone Methyl - Patients in the Phase 2 cohort will receive bardoxolone methyl throughout the study. Patients with baseline ACR = 300 mg/g will be titrated to a maximum dose of 20 mg, and patients with baseline ACR \> 300 mg/g will be titrated to a maximum dose of 30 mg. Adult patients (= 18 years of age) receiving bardoxolone methyl will start with once-daily dosing at 5 mg and will dose-escalate to 10 mg at Week 2, to 20 mg at Week 4, and then to 30 mg at Week 6 (only if baseline ACR \>300 mg/g) unless contraindicated clinically and approved by the medical monitor. Patients under the age of 18 receiving bardoxolone methyl will start 5 mg every other day during the first week and begin once-daily dosing with 5 mg during the second week of the study, and then continue with once-daily dosing following the same aforementioned dose titration scheme based on baseline ACR at Weeks 2, 4, and 6.

Active comparator: Phase 3 Bardoxolone Methyl - Patients with baseline ACR = 300 mg/g will be titrated to a maximum dose of 20 mg, and patients with baseline ACR \> 300 mg/g will be titrated to a maximum dose of 30 mg. Adult patients (= 18 years of age) receiving bardoxolone methyl will start with once-daily dosing at 5 mg and will dose-escalate to 10 mg at Week 2, to 20 mg at Week 4, and then to 30 mg at Week 6 (only if baseline ACR \>300 mg/g) unless contraindicated clinically and approved by the medical monitor. Patients under the age of 18 receiving bardoxolone methyl will start 5 mg every other day during the first week and begin once-daily dosing with 5 mg during the second week of the study, and then continue with once-daily dosing following the same aforementioned dose titration scheme based on baseline ACR at Weeks 2, 4, and 6.

Placebo comparator: Phase 3 Placebo - Patients randomized to placebo will remain on placebo throughout the study, undergoing sham titration.


Treatment: Drugs: Placebo Oral Capsule
Capsule containing an inert placebo

Treatment: Drugs: Bardoxolone Methyl
Bardoxolone methyl dose escalated from 5 mg to a maximum of 20 or 30 mg, depending on baseline proteinuria status.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Male and female patients 12 = age = 60 upon study consent;
* Diagnosis of Alport syndrome by genetic testing (documented mutation in a gene associated with Alport syndrome, including COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5) or histologic assessment using electron microscopy;
* Screening eGFR = 30 and = 90 mL/min/1.73 m2. The two eGFR values collected at Screen A and Screen B visits used to determine eligibility must have a percent difference = 25%;
* Albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) = 3500 mg/g at Screen B visit;
* If receiving an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and/or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), the medications must remain the same for at least 6 weeks prior to the Screen A visit and during Screening. The dosage of ACE inhibitor and/or ARB must also be stable for 2 weeks prior to the Screen A visit and remain the same through Day 1 (i.e., no change in dosage or medication). Patients not taking an ACE inhibitor and/or ARB because of a medical contraindication must have discontinued treatment at least 8 weeks prior to the Screen A visit;
* Adequate bone marrow reserve and organ function at the Screen A visit
* Able to swallow capsules;
* Willing and able to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures;
Minimum age
12 Years
Maximum age
60 Years
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?

* Uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c > 11.0%) at Screen A visit;
* Acute dialysis or acute kidney injury within 12 weeks prior to Screen A visit or during Screening;
* Serum albumin < 3 g/dL at Screen A visit;
* History of clinically significant left-sided heart disease and/or clinically significant cardiac disease, including but not limited to any of the following:
* Uncontrolled systemic hypertension as evidenced by sitting systolic blood pressure (BP) > 160 mm Hg or sitting diastolic BP > 100 mm Hg at Screen A visit after a period of rest;
* Systolic BP < 90 mm Hg at Screen A visit after a period of rest;
* History of malignancy within 5 years prior to Screen A visit, with the exception of localized skin or cervical carcinomas;
* Systemic immunosuppression for more than 2 weeks, cumulatively, within the 12 weeks prior to randomization or anticipated need for immunosuppression during the study;
