Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults 18–75 years old with biopsy-proven primary membranous nephropathy who meet weight and health criteria and do not require dialysis are the intended participants.

Probably not a fit

Patients with secondary membranous nephropathy, rapidly progressive disease, recent dialysis or expected need for dialysis, active or prior cancer, or recent major surgery are excluded and unlikely to benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter Phase II trial of SHR-2173 given by injection to adults with biopsy-confirmed primary membranous nephropathy. Participants are randomized to receive SHR-2173 (likely across dose groups) and are followed for safety, clinical response (such as changes in proteinuria and kidney function), and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic measurements. Key eligibility requires age 18–75, weight ≥40 kg, and primary membranous nephropathy confirmed by kidney biopsy. Major exclusions include secondary membranous nephropathy, rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, recent or expected dialysis, active or prior malignancy, and recent major surgery.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, SHR-2173 could reduce proteinuria and help preserve kidney function in people with primary membranous nephropathy.

How similar studies have gone: Other immunotherapy approaches (for example, rituximab) have shown benefit in primary membranous nephropathy, but SHR-2173 appears to be a novel agent without published efficacy data yet.
