Primary Outcome(s)
Main Objective: Evaluation of the efficacy of an immunosuppressive therapy added to a comprehensive supportive therapy to induce a clinical remission in patients at risk for progressive IgA nephropathy.
Primary end point(s): -Patients in full clinical remission of their disease. Full clinical remission is defined as proteinuria < 0.2 g/g and stable renal function (GFR loss of < 5 ml/min from baseline GFR at the end of the 3 year study period). -GFR loss of 15 ml/min or higher from baseline GFR at the end of the 3 year study period.
Secondary Objective: Investigation of differences between the treatments regarding the number of patients loosing more than 15 ml/min of glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
