Brief Summary: In this study investigators will evaluated the long-term efficacy and safety two years of Tacrolimus-Rituximab RTX therapy compared to Methylprednisolone-Cyclophosphamide CYC therapy in patients with primary Membranous Nephropathy MN

PRINCIPAL OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether sequential therapy with tacrolimus leads to a greater increase in the proportion of primary MN patients with Complete or Partial Remission when compared with patients receiving standard treatment It will be assessed 24 months after the beginning of treatment

Phase of the trial and design Phase III study open label randomized and active controlled trial

This study will have 3 stages screening and recruitment of patients for 18 months treatment period for six months in corticosteroids plus CYC group and 9 months in Tacrolimus-RTX group and finally post-treatment follow-up period until to complete 24 months of follow-up since initial treatment

This study will compare the standard therapy for primary MN patients with nephrotic range proteinuria active control of steroids plus CYC with a novel sequential therapy of tacrolimus and RTX an approach of potential high efficacy low toxicity and more acceptable safety profile
Detailed Description: PRIMARY AND SECONDARY ENDPOINTSOUTCOME MEASURES

Primary end-point

The proportion of patients reaching CR defined as a reduction of proteinuria since baseline level to a value equal or lower than 05 g24 h proteinuria plus stable renal function eGFR 45 mlmin173m2 or PR defined as a reduction of proteinuria since baseline level to a value less than 35 g24 h and 50 lower than baseline proteinuria plus stable renal function eGFR 45mlmin173m2 at 24 months of study treatment

Secondary end-points

The proportion of patients with Limited response LR defined as a reduction of proteinuria since baseline level 50 but to a value 35g24 h at 12 18 and 24 months of study treatment
The number of patients with an increase 50 of serum creatinine SCr from baseline at 12 18 and 24 months end of the follow-up
The time of renal survival status free of increase 50 of baseline SCr in both arms overall after the study
The proportion of patients with preserved renal function estimated GFR 60 mlmin in both treatment arms after the treatment period
The proportion of patients with relapse defines as the reappearance of proteinuria 35 gr24h and at least 50 increase over the lowest baseline value in at least three consecutive visits in those patients who previously presented a PR or CR and the time to relapse after the treatment period
Serum levels of anti-phospholipase A2 receptor antibodies anti-PLA2R before of treatment and at 3 6 9 12 18 and 24 months of study in both treatment arms
The proportion of patient with drug-related adverse events and serious adverse events

STUDY POPULATION

Patients with biopsy-proven idiopathic or primary membranous nephropathy with nephrotic proteinuria and normal or slight decrease of renal function will be enrolled
