Safety, tolerability, and how the body handles SK-09
This trial will test single and repeated oral doses of SK-09 for safety and to see how the body processes them in healthy adults aged 18–55.

Atacicept for multiple autoimmune glomerular diseases
This will test whether weekly injections of atacicept can lower protein in the urine and help preserve kidney function in people aged 10 and older with IgA nephropathy, primary membranous nephropathy, or nephrotic syndromes such as MCD and FSGS.

Observational study on kidney transplant recurrence in FSGS and MCD
This study is looking at patients with kidney diseases called FSGS and MCD who have had or will have a kidney transplant to see how often these diseases come back afterward.
