Decision brief · what the records say, not our assessment
Obinutuzumab in Treatment of Fibrillary Glomerulonephritis
NCT06295770 · Mayo Clinic · PHASE2 · recruiting · no Open Targets disease matched
Six questions a reader deciding whether to spend more time on this asks, each answered with flags: yes, no, or not published (hatched), each with its rule and source record. Flags are never added up into a score or a verdict, because published success rates disagree by a factor of two and more.
1. Is the biology right?

- Human genetic evidence: not published · This trial's cancer could not be matched to an Open Targets disease.Rule: Any germline or somatic human genetic evidence for the target in this cancer. Source: Open Targets Platform, 2026-11-11
- Pediatric target: yes · MS4A1 on the FDA listRule: Target is on FDA's Pediatric Molecular Target List (relevant targets); membership alone neither requires nor waives a study.

- Haematologic cancer: no · Solid tumourRule: From the indication, or the registry conditions when no indication matches. Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT06295770, 2026-11-11Published context: Likelihood of approval from phase 1: 7.5% haematologic vs 4.6% solid (BIO / Informa / QLS 2021, 2011–2020).

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT06295770, 2026-11-11Published context: Non-OS primary endpoint: odds ratio 2.79 for a positive phase 3 (Otsuka 2021, 400 phase 3 oncology trials, to 2020). Shown with the next figure: a surrogate is easier to hit, and often a weak guide to survival.Published context: 52% of surrogate-to-OS correlations are low (Prasad 2015, published to 2014). Shown with the figure above.
