Purpose of this Study
We are doing this study to find out if an experimental drug called felzartamab (the study drug) is a safe and effective option for people who have had a kidney transplant and are experiencing antibody-mediated rejection (AMR). We want to know if this drug provides any helpful benefit.

Description
There are two parts to this study, Part A and Part B. Whether you participate in Part A or Part B will depend on when you join the study. We will let you know which part of the study is active before you make a decision to join.
If you choose to join this study during Part A, you will get a random assignment (like a coin flip) to 1 of 2 groups:
- Group 1: If you are in this group, you will get the study drug.
- Group 2: If you are in this group, you will get a placebo (inactive substance with no drug in it).
