Active clinical trials for "Nephritis"

This study is performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of various measures in the treatment of HSPN in children.

Leflunomide versus Azathioprine for Maintenance Therapy of Lupus Nephritis

About 20% children with allergic purpura develop nephritis syndrome or nephrotic syndrome, 1% to 7% to kidney failure or end-stage renal disease. Children with serious damage to health, significantly reduced quality of life and caused heavy economic burden to the family . As the pathogenesis of HSPN is complex, it is difficult to formulate an exact individualized treatment plan.

Lupus nephritis (LN) is one of the most serious complications and the main cause of death in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).The investigators have investigated the usefulness, and confirmed the efficacy and safety of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) treatment of LN in animal models, in vitro experiments and phase I clinical trial. In this study, a randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group, non-inferiority, prospective, multicenter clinical trial is performed to investigate the efficacy and safety of MSC transplantation in the treatment of LN compared to mycophenolate mofetil (MMF).

To demonstrate the efficacy of SHR-1314 at Week 12 in subjects with proliferation lupus nephritis in terms of improvement of 24h UPCR, compared to placebo. The study will also assess the safety and tolerability of SHR-1314 in the patient population over the study period.

This study is performed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of various measures in the treatment of HSPN with mild proteinuria in children.

To investigate the safety and efficacy of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell transplantation in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and lupus nephritis (LN).

Evaluation the clinical efficacy and safety profile of glucocorticosteroid combined with oral T2 (chloroform/methanol extract of Tripterygium wilfordii Hook F) in the treatment of patients with lupus nephritis. Open-labeled, randomized, prospective multi-center clinical trial. Observation period of 24 weeks.

This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Study subjects are class III, IV, V, III+V, IV+V lupus nephritis patients, according to ISN/RPS 2003 classification of LN, with active lesion needing corticosteroid in combination with immunosuppressant therapy. Subjects who meet the eligibility criteria during screening will be randomized to 1 of 3 treatment groups in a 1:1:1 ratio: 25mg bid artesunate, 50mg bid artesunate or placebo plus standard of care (prednisone plus mycophenolate mofetil ［MMF］) for 6 month.

The purpose of this protocol is to determine whether Tacrolimus and Prednisolone are effective and safe in the treatment of the cyclophosphamide-resistant, refractory diffuse proliferative lupus nephritis
