Membranous Nephropathy-associated Serological Antibody Predict the Prognosis of Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy

June 16, 2020 updated by: Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital

A Prospective Cohort Study of Membranous Nephropathy-associated Serological Antibody in Prediction of the Prognosis of Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy

Idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) remains a common cause of the nephrotic syndrome in adults and one of the leading known causes of end-stage renal disease. Identification of circulating autoantigens provide potential biomarkers for diagnosis and therapy of idiopathic membranous nephropathy. M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) and Thrombospondin type-I domain-containing 7A (THSD7A) were identified as the target antigen in membranous nephropathy with high specificity and the concentration of serum anti-PLA2R antibody and anti-TSHD7A antibody were helpful for predicting disease activity. In our prospective cohort study, hospitalized patients diagnosed as IMN are prospectively studied. Circulating anti-PLA2R antibody and anti-THSD7A antibodies were recently screened by using enzyme-linked sorbent assay(ELISA). This study aims to analyse the difference of clinicopathological characteristics for different concentrations of serum anti PLA2R antibody and anti TSHD7A antibody, and analyze the association between baseline concentrations of serum antibody and disease activity. This study also explored the prediction effects of serum antibody concentrations with different types of therapeutic regimen in IMN and compare the curative effects of different types of therapeutic regimen in different serum antibody concentrations.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Complete Remission
Time Frame: after treatment for 6 months
Urinary protein excretion<0.3 g/d (uPCR<300 mg/g or <30 mg/mmol), confirmed by two values at least 1 week apart, accompanied by a normal serum albumin concentration, and a normal SCr.
after treatment for 6 months
Partial Remission
Time Frame: after treatment for 6 months
Urinary protein excretion <3.5 g/d (uPCR <3500 mg/g or <350 mg/mmol) and a 50% or greater reduction from peak values;confirmed by two values at least 1 week apart, accompanied by an improvement or normalization of the serum albumin concentration and stable SCr.
after treatment for 6 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
estimated Glomerular filtration rate and serum creatinine
Time Frame: after treatment for 6 months
time to a 50% reduction in baseline estimated Glomerular filtration rate (according to CK-EPI) and to doubling of baseline creatinine
after treatment for 6 months
