Health Technol Assess 2007; 11:1-93. This review assessed the clinical and cost-effectiveness of treatments for children with idiopathic SRNS. Eleven trials were examined and evidence supported the efficacy of CsA in inducing remissions in the non-FSGS group and for the effectiveness of cyclophosphamide on time for remission. It emphasizes the need for a modeling framework for a well designed RCT comparing CsA with other treatments in children with SRNS without genetic mutations.

This review evaluates the benefits and harm of 11 different randomized and quasi-randomized controlled trials used in 213 children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome who did not achieve remission following four weeks or more of daily corticosteroid therapy. It supports the efficacy of CsA in inducing remission and the use of ACEI in reducing proteinuria but emphasizes the need for well designed RCTs to confirm the efficacy of CsA and to evaluate other regimens for idiopathic SRNS.
