Abstract

Plain Language SummaryRituximab (RTX) seems to be an effective treatment alternative in primary forms of MCD and FSGS, particularly in cases of steroid dependence and frequent relapses. Our findings support the use of RTX for a steroid-free remission in podocytopathies and suggest that maintenance RTX is well-tolerated and associated with prolonged remission. Further studies are needed to confirm its efficacy and safety and establish the optimal induction and maintenance RTX regimen in steroid-dependent podocytopathies.
