Primary Outcome

CRR was defined as an achievement of all the following criteria: urinary protein-to-creatinine ratio (UPCR) \<0.5 gram/gram (g/g); estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \>=85% of baseline, as calculated using the chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation and no occurrence of intercurrent events of rescue therapy, treatment failure, death or early study withdrawal. Obinutuzumab and placebo were compared using Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel (CMH) test adjusting for the st
