NCT05734794
Brief Summary:
The main objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of Rituximab monotherapy versus steroid therapy on children with new-onset nephrotic syndrome within the 52-week follow-up.
Detailed Description:
Nephrotic syndrome(NS) -------the most common glomerular disease in children. Steroid, as the mainstream therapy for decades, many patients suffer from adverse effects of it, such as growth impacted, fat, and glaucoma.There is a urgent need for Steroid-sparing therapy. Rituximab, as a chemical monoclonal antibody against the cluster of differentiation antigen 20(CD20), has proved to be effective in patients with frequent-relapse/steroid-dependent NS. It has also been reported to be effective in six adult patients with new-onset NS. Rituximab mono-therapy in new-onset pediatric NS patients is still unclear.
