Daratumumab in Treatment of PGNMID and C3 GN
Daratumumab in Treatment of PGNMID and C3 GN
This study is being done to see if daratumumab is safe and effective in the treatment of
 proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal immune deposits (PGNMID) and C3
 glomerulopathy associated with monoclonal gammopathy (C3GN). This is an inflammatory disease
 in the kidney due to the production of abnormal proteins. There are no known standard
 effective treatments for patients with PGNMID and C3GN secondary to monoclonal gammopathy.
 These diseases are caused by abnormal production of proteins (monoclonals) by abnormal
 clones. Daratumamb has been shown to be effective in treating patients with multiple myeloma
 a disease which also caused by over production of monoclonal proteins from abnormal clones.
 Everyone in this study will receive daratumumab.
This study is an open-label phase 2 trial of the safety and efficacy of daratumumab, in the
 treatment of PGNMID and C3GN associated with monoclonal gammopathy. Subjects will be screened
 at outpatient Nephrology Clinic visit appointments and interested qualified subjects will be
 consented and offered participation in this trial. Once consent has been obtained baseline
 values will be established and subjects will begin treatment and follow-up for the next 12
 months. Daratumumab will be administered once weekly for 8 weeks and then once every 2 weeks
 for 8 additional doses. Patients will be followed for a total of 12 months (6 months after
 the last infusion). A final visit for evaluation and collection of lab samples will be
 conducted at the end of the study.

 -  Any other disease, metabolic dysfunction, physical examination finding, or clinical
 laboratory finding giving reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that
 contraindicates the use of an investigational drug or that may affect the
 interpretation of the results or render the patient at high risk from treatment
 complication
