Clinical Trial Summary

This prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical trial will evaluate the effect and security of steroids therapy for patients of IgA nephropathy with crescents.


Clinical Trial Description

It has been reported that for urinary protein excretion that is persistently more than 1g/24h and eGFR>50ml/min/1.73m2 in IgA nephropathy(IgAN), the KDIGO guidelines suggest a 6-month course of glucocorticoids. The famous study by Pozzi C has proved that for patients of IgAN with proteinuria of 1.0-3.5g/24h and serum creatinine concentrations of 133 umol/L or less, a 6-month course of steroid treatment(1g/d methylprednisolone intravenously for 3 consecutive days, with the course repeated 2 months and 4 months later,then oral prednisone 0.5mg/kg/d on alternate days for 6 months) could significantly reduce proteinuria and protect against renal function deterioration in IgAN. However, according to Oxford classification, crescents in IgAN would effect the prognosis.This will be a prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center study. Patients in treatment group will receive 0.5g/d methylprednisolone intravenously for 3 consecutive days in the 1st-2nd-3rd month ,then oral prednisone 0.5mg/kg/d on alternate days. Patients in control group will receive 0.5g/d methylprednisolone intravenously for 3 consecutive days in the 1st-3rd-5th month ,then oral prednisone 0.5mg/kg/d on alternate days. After followed-up for 6 months, the curative effect of steroid therapy on proteinuria and the progression of IgAN will be evaluated. ;
