Inclusion criteria
- {"criterion_text":"- ≥ 18 to ≤ 75 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent.\n- To reduce the risk of meningococcal infection (N meningitidis), all participants must be vaccinated against meningococcal infection from serogroups A, C, W, Y (and B where available) at least 14 days prior to but no more than 3 years prior to Day 1. Participants who do not meet this requirement will be vaccinated against meningococcal infection before receiving the first dose of study intervention. If vaccination occurs < 14 days prior to Day 1, the participants will receive prophylactic antibiotics for at least 14 days after meningococcal vaccination for serogroups A, C, W, Y (and B where available). Participants must agree to get revaccinated according to national/local guidelines.\n- Must be vaccinated for S pneumoniae prior to randomization according to current national/local vaccination guidelines.\n- Must be vaccinated for H influenzae type B (where available) prior to randomization according to current national/local vaccination guidelines. If vaccination is not clinically indicated due to the inability to mount an immune response, see Section 8.3.9 of the Protocol for instructions on antibiotic prophylactics.\n- Kidney transplant received ≥6 months prior to Screening.\n- Diagnosis of active or chronic active AMR according to Banff 2022 classification based on Screening kidney biopsy\n- Biopsy-proven histologic score ≥ 2 (g ≥ 1 and ptc ≥ 1) at Screening\n- eGFR ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 at Screening\n- Body weight ≥ 50 kg at Screening.\n- Male or female assigned at birth, inclusive of all gender identities.\n- CBP participants and CBP participants partners must follow protocol-specified contraception guidance.\n- Signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form and in this protocol."}

The participant not on an immunosuppressive regimen containing a calcineurin inhibitor must be excluded.\n- Participation in another interventional treatment study or use of any experimental therapy within 90 days prior to Screening or within 5 half-lives of that investigational product, whichever is greater, or planned participation/use during the course of the study.\n- Pregnant, breastfeeding, or intending to conceive within 6 months after the last dose of study intervention.\n- Alanine transaminase (ALT) or aspartate transaminase (AST) > 2 × ULN or ratio AST/ALT > 0.8 when ALT or AST is abnormal (abnormal ALT or AST can be retested if between ULN and 2 × ULN).\n- Total bilirubin > 2 × ULN (participants with Gilbert’s syndrome can be included with total bilirubin > 2 × ULN as long as direct bilirubin is ≤ 1.5 × ULN).\n- Known current acute or active chronic liver disease eg. cirrhosis, MASH, fatty liver, and alcoholic hepatitis.\n- ABO-incompatible transplant\n- Any of the following abnormal laboratory results at Screening: • uACR > 2200 mg/g indicating nephrotic range proteinuria • Hemoglobin < 8 g/dL • Platelets < 100 × 109/L • Leucocytes < 3 × 109/L • Neutrophils < 1.5 × 109/L\n- Multi-organ transplant recipient (except for simultaneous kidney-pancreas or previous multiple kidney transplants) or cell transplant (islet, bone marrow, stem cell) recipient.\n- Active systemic bacterial, viral, or fungal infection within 14 days prior to randomization.\n- Participants with history of HIV who are not on anti-retroviral therapy or if on therapy have a known detectable viral load within 1 year of Screening.\n- Evidence of hepatitis B or hepatitis C infections according to the following criteria at Screening: • Testing positive for HBsAg, OR • Testing positive for HBcAb while having a negative HBsAb HBsAband HBV DNA by reflex testing detected above the LLOQ by the local or central laboratory at Screening. • Positive hepatitis C antibody test result at Screening or within 3 months unless HCV RNA negative test by local or central laboratory is documented.\n- Congenital immunodeficiency.\n- History of unexplained, recurrent infection."}
