Jade Biosciences Launches Phase 2 Trial for JADE101
Jade Biosciences announced that the first participant has been dosed in Juniper, the Company's Phase 2 trial evaluating JADE101 in participants with immunoglobulin A nephropathy. JADE101 is designed with high binding affinity to selectively block APRIL, a key driver of pathogenic IgA production in IgAN, a chronic autoimmune disease that frequently affects young adults and can lead to end-stage kidney disease over a patient's lifetime. Interim data from JUNIPER are expected in 2027.
