Summary

This study looked at whether adding cyclosporine to rituximab works better than rituximab alone for people with a kidney disease called idiopathic membranous nephropathy. Only 12 people took part before the study was stopped early. The goal was to see if the combination could reduce protein in the urine and improve blood protein levels.
