First seen Jan 21, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study tests a newer drug, obinutuzumab, against the current standard treatment (cyclophosphamide plus steroids) for people with a kidney condition called primary membranous nephropathy. About 144 adults with moderate to severe disease will receive either the new drug or the standard therapy. The goal is to see which approach better reduces protein in the urine, a key sign of kidney damage, over 24 months.
