The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of TW compared to Valsartan in treatment of heavy proteinuria of membranous nephropathy.
Membranous nephropathy with heavy proteinuria have high risks of progressing to CRF.
Tripterygium (TW) is a Chinese traditional patent drugs, it can reduce proteinuria of chronic glomerular nephritis,such as IgA nephropathy. So, we designed this randomized, prospective clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of TW versus Valsartan in the treatment of heavy proteinuria of MN.
