Study summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether adding Zuberitamab to standard corticosteroid therapy can help prevent relapse in children and adolescents aged 1 to 18 years with newly diagnosed steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS). It will also learn about the safety of Zuberitamab.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Does Zuberitamab plus standard corticosteroid therapy prolong the time to first relapse compared with standard corticosteroid therapy alone?
  • What medical problems do participants experience during treatment?

Researchers will compare Zuberitamab plus standard corticosteroid therapy to standard corticosteroid therapy alone to see whether adding Zuberitamab improves disease control.

Participants will:

  • Receive standard corticosteroid treatment for approximately 12 weeks, with or without a single intravenous infusion of Zuberitamab after achieving remission
  • Take preventive antibiotics if they are in the Zuberitamab group
  • Test their urine daily at home using dipsticks and record results in a diary
  • Visit the clinic for regular checkups and blood and urine tests during follow-up for up to 12 months
Read the detailed description

Primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS) is the most common glomerular disease in children. Although 80-90% of affected children achieve complete remission after initial corticosteroid therapy and are classified as having steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS), most experience disease relapse within the first year after onset. Approximately half subsequently develop frequently relapsing nephrotic syndrome (FRNS) or steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome (SDNS), requiring prolonged exposure to corticosteroids and additional immunosuppressive agents. Recurrent relapses and long-term immunosuppressive treatment are associated with substantial morbidity, including infection, impaired growth and development, metabolic complications, nephrotoxicity, and reduced quality of life.

B-cell depletion therapy has emerged as an effective strategy for relapsing nephrotic syndrome. Rituximab, an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, has demonstrated the ability to reduce relapse rates and maintain remission in children with FRNS/SDNS, even after withdrawal of corticosteroids and other immunosuppressive agents. Based on accumulating evidence, rituximab has been incorporated into international treatment guidelines. Building upon extensive clinical experience with rituximab, our group initiated an investigator-sponsored multicenter study evaluating early rituximab treatment in children with newly diagnosed SSNS. Long-term follow-up from this study suggested potential benefits in preventing relapse and demonstrated an acceptable safety profile.

Zuberitamab is a next-generation anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody developed through molecular engineering of rituximab. Compared with rituximab, preclinical studies have demonstrated enhanced antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), a larger steady-state volume of distribution, and more sustained B-cell depletion. Zuberitamab was approved in China in 2023 for the treatment of CD20-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. In addition, its use in kidney diseases has been reported in retrospective cohort studies and other early clinical experiences, including patients with membranous nephropathy. However, evidence regarding its efficacy and safety in glomerular diseases, particularly in paediatric nephrotic syndrome, remains limited.

Current treatment strategies for childhood nephrotic syndrome primarily focus on managing relapses after they occur rather than preventing them during the early phase of disease. Whether early intervention with a potent anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody can modify the disease course and reduce future relapses remains uncertain. This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of early Zuberitamab administration in combination with standard corticosteroid therapy in children with newly diagnosed steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome.

This is a multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial conducted across nine pediatric nephrology centers in China. Children with newly diagnosed steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) who achieve remission following standard corticosteroid treatment will be randomized at weeks 4-5 after remission to receive either Zuberitamab plus standard corticosteroid treatment or standard corticosteroid treatment alone. Participants will be followed prospectively for up to 12 months to assess disease relapse, cumulative corticosteroid exposure, safety outcomes, kidney function, and health-related quality of life.

The study aims to determine whether early addition of Zuberitamab at weeks 4-5 after remission, compared with standard corticosteroid treatment alone, can prolong time to first relapse within 12 months.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(17)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

GFR and eGFR (kidney filtering)

GFR (glomerular filtration rate) is how much blood the kidneys filter each minute. It is usually estimated from a blood test — eGFR, by formulas such as CKD-EPI or MDRD — and some studies ask for it to be measured directly instead. Usually given in mL/min/1.73 m².

Check the method, the units and the minimum the study states. A value of 90 or above is in the normal-or-high range, but kidney damage can show in other tests too.

Immunosuppression

A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.

Absolute neutrophil count (ANC)

The number of neutrophils, white blood cells that help fight infection, in a given amount of blood. Too few raises the risk of infection.

It is a count, not a percentage of the white cells. Limits are written in units that mean the same: ≥ 1.5 × 10⁹/L is ≥ 1,500 per mm³ (µL). Each lab has its own reference range.

Hemoglobin (Hb)

The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).

Platelets

Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.

ALT and AST (liver enzymes)

Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.

Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.

ULN (upper limit of normal)

The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.

“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.

Autoimmune disease

A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.

Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

Hepatitis C tests

Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.

After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

Live vaccines

Vaccines made with a weakened form of the germ, such as measles–mumps–rubella (MMR), chickenpox and yellow fever. They can be risky when the immune system is weakened. Flu injections are not live; the nasal flu spray is.

CTCAE grade

The US National Cancer Institute’s scale of how severe an adverse event is — any unwanted medical event during a study, such as a symptom, an illness or an abnormal test result, whether or not a treatment caused it. Whether it did is judged separately.

1
Mild.
2
Moderate.
3
Severe.
4
Life-threatening.
5
Death due to the event.

“Side effects of earlier treatment resolved to grade 1 or less” means they have settled to mild or gone.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Excipients

The other ingredients in a medicine besides the active drug, such as fillers, colours or preservatives.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Interventions

  • BiologicalZuberitamab

    Zuberitamab is administered as a single intravenous infusion at a dose of 375 mg/m² (maximum 500 mg) following achievement of steroid-sensitive remission. To reduce the risk of infusion-related reactions, premedication is administered approximately 30 minutes before infusion and may include: * Acetaminophen or ibuprofen; * Cetirizine, cyproheptadine, loratadine, or equivalent antihistamines; * Intravenous methylprednisolone 1.6 mg/kg (maximum 48 mg). Participants receiving zuberitamab also receive prophylactic trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP 3 mg/kg every other day; maximum SMZ dose 960 mg every other day) until B-cell recovery. Infusion-related reactions are managed according to protocol-defined procedures, including infusion rate reduction, temporary interruption, permanent discontinuation when clinically indicated, and appropriate supportive therapy.
