Eighty percent of children with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) relapse within 2 years and 40–50% patients show frequently-relapsing nephrotic syndrome (FRNS). Patients showing a relapse within 6 months after initial remission are at high risk of FRNS. Since frequent prednisolone treatment for FRNS induces severe prednisolone side effects, development of a treatment to prevent patients from shifting to FRNS is desirable. Mizoribine is an immunosuppressive drug with fewer side effects than prednisolone. Recent studies reported the efficacy of high-dose mizoribine in children with FRNS. We conduct a multicenter, open, randomized controlled trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of standard prednisolone plus high-dose mizoribine therapy in children with SSNS showing a relapse within 6 months after an initial remission. Patients are allocated to either standard prednisolone alone treatment group, or standard prednisolone plus high-dose mizoribine group. For the former group, mizoribine is administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg/day once daily and continued for 2 years. The primary endpoint is the duration to frequent relapse. The results provide important data on use of high-dose mizoribine to prevent SSNS patients from shifting to FRNS. Since blood concentrations of mizoribine have not been investigated in detail until now, there is a possibility that mizoribine is underestimated in favor of other immunosuppressive drugs. In future, high-dose mizoribine therapy may lead to prevention of relapse in children at high risk of FRNS, and to decreased total dose of prednisolone.
