Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Efficacy To compare the efficacy of obinutuzumab when combined with standard-of-care therapy consisting of mycophenolate mofetil + oral steroids and placebo when combined with standard-of-care therapy (complete renal response at Week 76 defined as protocol). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Safety, Efficacy, Phamacokinetics, Phamacodynamics, Other To compare the efficacy of obinutuzumab when combined with standard-of-care therapy and placebo when combined with standard-of-care (i.e., the secondary endpoints). The main secondary endpoints are: (1)Proportion of patients who showing improvement in proteinuric at week 76 (2)Proportion of patients achieving CRR with successful corticosteroid component at Week 76 (3)Proportion of patients who achieved ORR (CRR + PRR) at week 50 (4)Proportion of patients who died, failed treatment or developed renal-related events by week 76 | — |
