Key Factors Driving the Complement 3 Glomerulopathy MarketAdvancements in Complement Biology and Targeted Therapies
A deeper understanding of complement dysregulation has improved the identification of therapeutic targets within the alternative complement pathway. The development of therapies targeting different components of the complement cascade is expanding treatment options for patients with C3G.
Improved Diagnostic Capabilities
The widespread use of complement assays, genetic testing, and renal biopsy interpretation is enabling earlier and more accurate diagnosis of C3G. Increased multidisciplinary collaboration and advances in specialized diagnostics are also contributing to better identification of patients with this rare kidney disease.
Increasing Recognition of C3G Disease Burden
Increased reporting and retrospective chart reviews in nephrology centers suggest that C3G may be more common than previously believed, particularly in regions with improved access to specialized diagnostic services. The progressive nature of C3G and its high risk of kidney disease progression further highlight the need for effective treatment options.
Expansion of the Complement 3 Glomerulopathy Pipeline
The C3G pipeline is expanding with therapies targeting novel mechanisms, including dual complement inhibition, MASP-3 inhibition, and RNA interference targeting complement C3. These approaches are expected to provide additional treatment options and contribute to market growth during the forecast period.
Complement 3 Glomerulopathy Competitive Landscape
The Complement 3 Glomerulopathy treatment landscape has evolved significantly with the introduction of targeted complement therapies. Historically, management has relied heavily on supportive and off-label treatments, including corticosteroids, immunosuppressive drugs, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, calcineurin inhibitors, and monoclonal antibodies such as eculizumab and rituximab.
The approval of FABHALTA (iptacopan) marked a significant advancement in C3G treatment. Iptacopan is an oral Factor B inhibitor that targets the alternative complement pathway. By binding to Factor B, it inhibits alternative pathway activation and reduces complement-mediated injury within the glomeruli.
EMPAVELI/ASPAVELI (pegcetacoplan) represents another important advancement by targeting C3 directly and proximally within the complement cascade. The therapy has been approved for C3G and primary IC-MPGN and provides a broader upstream approach to complement inhibition.
The emerging pipeline includes therapies with differentiated mechanisms of action. KP104 is a dual-targeting complement inhibitor designed to simultaneously inhibit C5 and Factor H. Zaltenibart (OMS906) is an investigational MASP-3 inhibitor targeting the alternative complement pathway, while ARO-C3 is an RNA interference therapeutic designed to target complement C3. Ruxoprubart (NM8074) is an engineered human immunoglobulin designed to selectively block the alternative pathway by binding Bb.
These emerging therapies are expected to further reshape the Complement 3 Glomerulopathy treatment landscape over the forecast period.

Recent Developments in the Complement 3 Glomerulopathy Market
In January 2026, Sobi announced that the European Commission approved ASPAVELI (pegcetacoplan) for the treatment of adult and adolescent patients aged 12 to 17 years with C3G or primary IC-MPGN in combination with a renin-angiotensin system inhibitor, unless RAS inhibitor treatment is not tolerated or contraindicated.
In June 2025, Apellis Pharmaceuticals presented new data from the open-label period of the Phase III VALIANT study, investigating pegcetacoplan for C3G and primary IC-MPGN, during a late-breaking session at the ERA Congress.
In July 2025, the US FDA approved pegcetacoplan as the first treatment for C3G or primary IC-MPGN in patients 12 years of age and older.
In March 2025, iptacopan (FABHALTA) received US FDA approval for the treatment of adults with C3G.
In April 2025, the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) adopted a positive opinion recommending marketing authorization for iptacopan for the treatment of adults with C3G.
What is Complement 3 Glomerulopathy?
Complement 3 Glomerulopathy (C3G) is a group of rare kidney diseases caused by dysregulation of the alternative complement pathway. The condition is characterized by predominant deposition of complement component C3 within the glomeruli, with minimal or absent immunoglobulin, C1q, and C4.
C3G includes two major forms: Dense Deposit Disease (DDD) and C3 Glomerulonephritis (C3GN). These forms differ according to their patterns of damage and inflammation within the glomeruli, with features of DDD generally appearing earlier, often during adolescence.
Patients with C3G may present with proteinuria, hematuria, reduced urine output, low blood protein levels, and edema. Diagnosis typically requires a kidney biopsy, including light microscopy, immunofluorescence, and electron microscopy. Additional assessments may include urine and blood tests and measurement of glomerular filtration rate.
C3G has a challenging long-term outlook due to its progressive course and high risk of recurrence. Approximately 30–50% of patients develop end-stage kidney disease within 10 years of diagnosis, highlighting the significant unmet need for effective disease-modifying therapies.
