Can a smarter antibody outsmart a kidney disease that resists standard treatment?
Disease control CompletedThis trial tests whether obinutuzumab, a next-generation antibody, can help people with membranous nephropathy—a kidney disease that causes protein leakage and swelling—who haven't responded well to the standard drug rituximab or who can't take it due to allergic reactions. About…

Can a pill calm the immune attack on kidneys?
Disease control CompletedThis trial tests an experimental oral drug called EVER001 in people with primary membranous nephropathy, a kidney disease where the immune system damages the kidney's filtering units, causing protein to leak into urine. The study aims to see if EVER001 can reduce proteinuria and …

New antibody targets hidden plasma cells to treat kidney disease
Disease control CompletedThis phase 2 trial tests felzartamab (MOR202), an antibody that targets CD38 on plasma cells, in people with membranous nephropathy who did not improve with rituximab or similar therapies. The goal is to reduce protein leakage in urine and achieve remission of nephrotic syndrome.…

New antibody drug shows promise for tough kidney disease
Disease control CompletedThis study tested a new drug, MIL62, in 94 adults with primary membranous nephropathy, a serious kidney condition. The goal was to see if MIL62 is safe and can help reduce protein in the urine better than the standard drug cyclosporine. Participants received either MIL62 or cyclo…

Immune cells may hold key to predicting kidney disease relapse
Knowledge-focused CompletedThis study looks at immune cell patterns in people with three types of nephrotic syndrome—membranous nephropathy, minimal change disease, and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Researchers aim to see if certain immune cells can serve as biomarkers to track how well a patient res…

Blood cell study may unlock kidney disease secrets
Knowledge-focused CompletedThis study looked at immune cells (T and B cells) in the blood of 44 people with a kidney disease called membranous nephropathy. Researchers wanted to see how these cells relate to treatment response and disease relapse. They also measured specific antibodies linked to the diseas…

Blood test may guide treatment for relapsed kidney disease
Knowledge-focused CompletedThis completed lab study took blood samples from 20 adults with relapsed membranous nephropathy, a kidney condition. Researchers tested different immune-modulating drugs on the blood cells to see how they affect the balance of Th17 and Treg immune cells. The goal is to find which…

Simple blood test could spot kidney patients at risk of failure
Knowledge-focused CompletedThis study looks at a new blood test that measures specific antibodies in people with membranous nephropathy, an autoimmune kidney disease. The test aims to predict which patients are more likely to develop kidney failure. Researchers will follow 52 adults over time to see if the…

Blood cell clues may explain why some kidney patients relapse
Knowledge-focused CompletedThis study looks at blood samples from 48 people with membranous nephropathy, a kidney disease. Researchers used a special test to measure immune cells (B cells) that target a protein called PLA2R. The goal is to see how these cells change after treatment with B-cell depleting dr…

Worldwide kidney study tracks 6,000 patients to unlock disease secrets
Knowledge-focused CompletedThis study followed nearly 6,000 people with kidney disease from around the world. Researchers collected routine test results like kidney function and protein in urine to better understand how the disease progresses. The goal was to gather information, not to test a new treatment…
