Summary

This study tests a drug called obinutuzumab against a standard treatment (tacrolimus) in 142 adults with primary membranous nephropathy, a kidney disease that lets protein leak into urine. The goal is to see if obinutuzumab can bring about complete remission (no protein in urine) by week 104. Participants must have severe protein leakage and adequate kidney function. The drug is given by infusion, and while it aims to control the disease, patients may still need ongoing monitoring or other medications.
