Obinutuzumab induced a longer and deeper B cell depletion than rituximab being able to deplete B cells in lymphoid tissue other than peripheral blood, as shown in both animal models and patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia or kidney transplantation. Notably, obinutuzumab was found to be more efficient than rituximab in inducing B-cell cytotoxicity in-vitro, especially on naïve (IgD+CD27-) and switched (IgD-CD27+) memory B cells. This is a clinically relevant finding, because memory B cells are known to be associated with the risk of relapse after rituximab treatment in children with nephrotic syndrome. A recent retrospective study in 41 children \\[median (IQR) age: 10.6 (8.5-14.29) years\\] with steroid-dependent or frequently relapsing nephrotic syndrome, showed that treatment with obinutuzumab achieved B-cell depletion and sustained remission in 38 (93%) and 28 (68%) children at 12 and 24 months after treatment, respectively. Treatment was safe and well tolerated. Moreover, preliminary data indicate that obinutuzumab treatment can achieve complete or partial remission of the nephrotic syndrome in the large majority of adult participants with membranous nephropathy refractory to different immunosuppressive medications including rituximab, and even the human type 1 anti-CD20 antibody ofatumumab or the anti-CD38 antibody felzartamab (NCT05050214). Notably, obinutuzumab treatment achieved B-cell depletion and proteinuria reduction in all treated participants and persistent circulating anti-PLA2R antibody depletion in all participants with PLA2R-related disease even during the recovery of circulating B cells (NCT05050214). Conceivably, obinutuzumab could achieve remission of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome by inducing profound and sustained B-cell depletion, thereby inhibiting the production of anti-podocyte autoantibodies or the production of still unknown B-cell derived nephritogenic mediators and autoantibodies.\n\nThus, whether obinutuzumab treatment may achieve persistent remission also in adult participants with multi-relapsing, rituximab-dependent nephrotic syndrome, as previously reported in children, and as already observed in adult participants with refractory membranous nephropathy (NCT05050214), and whether this effect is associated with delayed recovery of switched memory B cells and emergence of B cells with a naïve phenotype as well as sustained reduction or depletion of circulating anti-podocyte antibodies is worth investigating.\n\nIn parallel to the evaluation of the phenotype of repopulating B cells, we will evaluate serum levels of the B-cell activating factor (BAFF). BAFF is a cytokine that orchestrates peripheral tolerance of B cells and promotes the survival of autoreactive B cells escaping central tolerance mechanisms. In participants with autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus or rheumatoid arthritis, the relapse of disease activity after rituximab treatment has been associated with compensatory elevation of the B cell-activating factor BAFF levels. Elevated BAFF levels at baseline or during the follow-up may explain the resistance or dependency to anti-CD20 depleting antibodies in participants with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome.",[27],"Nephrotic Syndrome，Idiopathic","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-01-23",{"date":31,"type":32},"2026-01-26","ACTUAL",{"date":34,"type":21},"2026-02",{"date":36,"type":21},"2029-03",{"name":38,"class":39},"Mario Negri Institute for Pharmacological Research","OTHER",1,{"id":42,"slug":43,"hasResults":11,"nctId":44,"briefTitle":45,"officialTitle":46,"acronym":47,"eligibilityCriteria":48,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":17,"minAge":49,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":50,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":22,"phases":52,"briefSummary":54,"conditions":55,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":57,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":58,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":59,"startDateStruct":61,"completionDateStruct":63,"leadSponsor":65,"locationsCount":67},"100509494","phase-3-clinical-study-of-rituximab-for-the-treatment-for-idiopathic-membranous-nephropathy-with-nephrotic-syndrome-100509494","NCT05914155","Clinical Study of Rituximab for the Treatment for Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy with Nephrotic Syndrome","The Multi-center, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Rituximab (Genetical Recombination) for the Treatment for Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy with Nephrotic Syndrome （PRIME Study）","PRIME","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
