Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for adults aged 35 to 75 with Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease. Participants will receive two infusions of either AION-301 or a placebo over a few days and will attend several clinic visits for checkups and tests.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety (good or bad) of giving two AION-301 intravenous (IV) infusions, in adults with Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). It will also help to learn if AION-301 reduces the symptoms of CKD and/or progression. The main questions it aims to answer are:

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety (good or bad) of giving two AION-301 intravenous (IV) infusions, in adults with Stage 3 Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). It will also help to learn if AION-301 reduces the symptoms of CKD and/or progression. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Do participants have medical problems (adverse events) after receiving two infusions of AION-301?
* Do participants feel better (have reduced and/or delayed CKD symptoms)?
* To learn about how AION-301 works in participants with CKD?
Researchers will compare AION-301 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if AION-301 works to treat Stage 3 CKD.
Participants will:
* Receive two infusions of AION-301 or placebo on two separate days (Day 0 and Day 4).
* Receive oral vitamins at the clinic and to take at home for 90 days.
* Visit the clinic for a minimum of 9 times, over 6 months for checkups and tests, but could be up to 12 times, over 24 months for checkups and tests.

Inclusion Criteria:
Participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following criteria apply:
* Patient is able to communicate well with the investigator, is capable of giving signed informed consent which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol, understands all requirements of the study, and understands and signs the written ICF before any study-specific procedure.
* Willing and able to comply with the scheduled visits and treatment plan.
* Either biological sex
* Participant must be 35 to 75 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.
* Diagnosis of CKD stage 3, G3 (a and b): persistent eGFR between 30 and 59 mL/min/1.73 m² (at least 2 measures within that range in the preceding 3 months, including the one at screening visit), and persistent increased Albuminuria (at least 2 measures within 3 months, including 1 before screening and 1 at screening (criterion for increased Albuminuria at screening: ≥2 out of 3 repeat daily early morning samples at screening) (UACR ≥ 200 mg/g and \< than 5000 mg/g)
* Treatment with maximum labelled or tolerated dose of a renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) blocking agent including an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), and SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) unless such treatment is contraindicated or not tolerated\*. Treatment dose must be stable for at least 3 months prior to the date of the screening. If a patient is on treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonist, he/she should be on a stable dose for at least 3 months before screening.
\*Participants who are documented to be unable to take ACE inhibitors or ARBs or SGLT2i will be allowed to participate.
* Female subjects must not be breastfeeding and must have no intention to become pregnant during the study, and she will be required to use at least two FDA approved birth control during the study. The FDA-approved and cleared methods for birth control are listed below:
* Permanent Sterilization
* Long-Acting Reversible Contraceptives (LARC)
* Contraceptive Injection
* Short-Acting Hormonal Methods
* Barrier Methods
* Emergency Contraception
* Any male subject must agree to use contraceptives and not donate sperm during the study.
* Contraceptive use by men and women should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
