Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education:

Given the comparable efficacy of the modified-‘modified Ponticelli’ regimens using lower doses of cyclophosphamide and corticosteroids, respectively, and cognizant of the natural history of primary membranous nephropathy (MN), every effort to mitigate the deleterious adverse effects of immunosuppression, while still not losing therapeutic efficacy in the management of primary MN, must continue to be encouraged.
