More recently, development of monoclonal antibodies, together with progresses in the knowledge of pathophysiological mechanisms of autoimmune glomerulopathies, offered the opportunity for more selective, effective, and safer treatments (Table 1).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Rituximab, a chimeric antibody against the B cell-expressed CD20 antigen, was the first monoclonal employed for the treatment of a glomerular disease.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span> Introduced in 1998 with the indication for the treatment of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and chronic lymphatic leukemia, it has been subsequently approved as a therapy for rheumatoid arthritis.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> Rituximab has been initially used to treat membranous nephropathy (MN),<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3-6</span> but its use has rapidly spread to other primary<span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span> and secondary<span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span> glomerular diseases. Another antibody whose employment has progressively increased in the treatment of glomerulopathies is Eculizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody against the C5 complement component.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">These encouraging results and the growing availability of novel monoclonal antibodies selectively targeting cytokines, inflammatory mediators and different lymphocyte populations are expected to generate a major paradigm shift in the treatment of immune-mediated glomerular diseases.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">RITUXIMAB</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Membranous nephropathy </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Membranous nephropathy, the leading cause of nephrotic syndrome in Caucasian adults, is characterized by the deposition of immune complexes in the subepithelial space of the glomeruli, leading to a thickening of the glomerular basement membrane.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span> If untreated, about 30-40% of affected patients reach end-stage kidney disease (ESRD) in over 5-10 years after diagnosis.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Since B cells play a crucial role in MN pathogenesis through autoantibody production and antigen presentation, Rituximab was hypothesized to represent an ideal treatment to selective treat the disease. Consistent with this hypothesis, in early small cohort studies Rituximab-induced B-cell depletion was associated with proteinuria reduction and regression or amelioration of immunopathologic changes of active glomerular disease.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">12-14</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Recently, Ruggenenti et al. reported the outcomes of 100 patients with MN and nephrotic syndrome treated with Rituximab.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span> B-cell depletion was associated with remission of the nephrotic syndrome in 65 out of 100 consecutive patients with MN. Twenty-seven of these patients achieved complete remission with reduction of urinary protein excretion to normal range, and 20 of the 35 who failed to achieve remission had their proteinuria reduced to less than 50% of baseline values. Treatment effect was time-dependent and all patients with at least four years of follow-up achieved complete or partial remission (Figure 1). Rituximab was effective also when previous treatments with steroids and other immunosuppressive drugs, including cyclophosphamide and chlorambucil, had failed or a second course of Rituximab was needed to treat disease recurrence after initial remission.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In summary, Rituximab treatment is able to achieve disease remission and to stabilize or even improve renal function in MN patients at high risk of poor outcome because of persistent nephrotic syndrome. In consideration of its excellent safety profile, Rituximab should be considered to replace more toxic regimens as first line treatment of MN, at least for those patients with nephrotic syndrome unresponsive to conservative therapy.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Minimal change disease and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis <br></br></span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome (NS) in children and young adults is secondary to minimal change disease (MCD) in 90 percent of cases and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is present in most of the remaining ones. Except for a minority of cases associated with molecular defects of podocyte genes,<span class="elsevierStyleSup">15</span> the disease appears to be immune mediated.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span> This represents the rationale why until recently treatment of the disease largely relied on steroids, that achieve remission within four weeks in approximately 90% of children with MCD and 20 to 60% of those with FSGS.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span> Sixty to 70% of patients, however, relapse after steroid tapering or withdrawal and most require repeat courses of prednisone to achieve remission of recurrent episodes and/or the addition of other immunosuppressive medications such as calcineurin inhibitors, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) or alkylating agents to reduce the number of relapses and prevent major side effects of steroid treatment.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span> These patients are affected by the serious adverse effects of immunosuppression and by the serious complications associated with relapsing episodes of heavy proteinuria such as accelerated cardiovascular disease, thromboembolic events and progressive renal function loss.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The possibility of a specific and safer approach to patients with steroid-dependent or frequently relapsing NS emerged in 2004, when the B-cell depleting monoclonal antibody Rituximab was reported to induce remission of proteinuria in a child with frequently relapsing NS secondary to MCD who had received this medication to cure a supervened idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">19,20</span> Subsequent sparse uncontrolled observations reported the efficacy of Rituximab in patients with steroid-dependent or frequently relapsing MCD,<span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span> suggesting that B-cell immunity could play a key role in the pathophysiology of the disease. A prospective cohort study tested the efficacy of multiple Rituximab infusions (1 to 5) in 46 consecutive children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome lasting for at least 1 year and maintained in remission with oral prednisone and calcineurin inhibitors. Oral agents were tapered after each infusion, and completely withdrawn within 45 days. One- and 2-year-remission probabilities were, respectively, 20 and 10%, with Median time intervals between complete oral-agent withdrawal and relapse were 5.6 and 8.5 months, respectively, following the first and subsequent courses.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Until recently, less attention was given to adults and patients with FSGS given difficulties in designing adequately powered trials. In 2013, a multicenter, off-on trial evaluated the effects of Rituximab therapy followed by immunosuppression withdrawal on disease recurrence in 10 children and 20 adults with MCD or FSGS who had suffered at least two recurrences over the previous year and were in steroid-induced remission for at least one month. At 1 year after Rituximab infusion, all patients were in remission: 18 were treatment-free and 15 never relapsed. Compared with the year before Rituximab treatment, the per-patient median number of relapses decreased from 2.5 to 0.5 (P<0.001) during the one year of follow-up.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span> Still unclear is the efficacy of Rituximab in steroid-resistant INS. A retrospective study showed that Rituximab induced complete remission in 7 out of 10 patients with steroid-resistant INS on steroids, calcineurin inhibitors with or without antiproliferative agents.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span> On the other hand, a randomized trial found that add-on therapy with Rituximab on top of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) and prednisone did not reduce proteinuria at 3 months in 31 children with steroid-resistant INS.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">25</span> Further studies are needed to establish whether B-cell depletion can be effective also in these patients.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Lupus nephritis, ANCA-associated vasculitis, and cryoglobulinemic nephropathy </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The crucial pathogenic role of immune complexes in lupus nephritis (LN) made this disease an obvious target for Rituximab therapy, with the rationale that B cell depletion will extinguish the reservoir of autoreactive plasma cells. In numerous small studies, Rituximab monotherapy proved effective in promoting complete remission of LN. In a series of 18 patients with NL class III/IV/V,<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span> induction therapy with Rituximab associated with MMF maintenance immunosuppression induced complete or partial remission in 78% of the cases, which persisted up to one year in 67% of them. This combined treatment seems effective also as a rescue therapy in refractory or relapsing LN forms. In an open-label, multicenter study including 15 patients with active or resistant LN, combined Rituximab-MMF therapy promoted partial or complete remission in 9 cases.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">26,27</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The results from initial uncontrolled studies were challenged by the Lupus Nephritis Assessment with Rituximab (LUNAR) trial, a randomized, double blind, phase III study testing the efficacy and safety of Rituximab versus placebo in patients with active proliferative LN receiving MMF and steroids. The rates of complete or partial remission at 1 year (primary end point) in the Rituximab and placebo groups were 57% and 46%, respectively, which did not reach statistical significance. Nevertheless, Rituximab was associated with a significant improvement in C3, C4 and anti-dsDNA levels.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">28,29</span> The Exploratory Phase II/III SLE Evaluation of Rituximab trial also failed to demonstrate benefits on nonrenal lupus.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">29</span> However, uncontrolled studies on refractory LN still document 75% responder rates and many specialists continue using Rituximab successfully for these patients.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">30</span> Further studies are needed to identify predictors of response to Rituximab in LN patients.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The evidence that the percentage of circulating B cell correlates with ANCA-associated vasculitis activity<span class="elsevierStyleSup">31</span> formed the background for numerous uncontrolled studies where Rituximab induced disease remission in cases resistant to other treatments. In 2010, results have been published from two large randomized controlled trials, the Rituximab versus cyclophosphamide in ANCA-associated vasculitis (RITUXVAS)<span class="elsevierStyleSup">32</span> and the Rituximab in ANCA-Associated Vasculitis (RAVE)<span class="elsevierStyleSup">33</span> including 197 and 44 patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis, respectively. In both studies, Rituximab had a safety/efficacy profile similar to cyclophosphamide over 12 months of follow-up. Results from the extension phases of these studies might have major impact on future treatment of ANCA-associated vasculitis<span class="elsevierStyleItalic">.</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Rituximab proved effective also in the treatment of mixed cryoglobulinemia. A retrospective analysis of 242 patients with hepatitis C-unrelated mixed cryoglobulinemia showed that Rituximab treatment associated with steroids was associated with a significant improvement of clinical manifestations compared to steroids alone or in association with alkylating agents.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">34</span> Similar results have been reported by a prospective-cohort study comparing the outcomes of 33 patients with hepatitis C-associated mixed cryoglobulinemia who received Rituximab, Peg-interferon, and ribavirin with those of 55 patients treated with Peg-interferon, and ribavirin, but no Rituximab.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">35</span> Over the 44 weeks of follow-up, 81% of patients had a complete remission, compared to 40% in the control group. Recently, another prospective-cohort study showed that two 250mg/m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2 </span>Rituximab infusions (about half of the doses normally used) induced remission in 79% of the cases of mixed cryoglobulinemia resistant to other therapies.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">36</span> Reducing Rituximab doses may therefore help in improving the safety/efficacy profile of this antibody, at least in the treatment of mixed cryoglobulinemia.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Safety </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Rituximab is generally well tolerated and to date no serious adverse events have been reported in patients affected by glomerular diseases treated with Rituximab monotherapy.

Moreover, this infection may occur also in patients with autoimmune disease treated with Rituximab-free immunosuppressive regimens.
