The purpose of this research is to learn if Obinutuzumab is effective and safe in treating patients with fibrillary glomerulonephritis (FGN).
Detection and classification of different renal and urinary affection in patients with IBD that attended to Assist University Hospitals
The RENATO trial is a multicenter randomized controlled trial that evaluates the efficacy of pioglitazone to improve renal outcomes in ANCA-associated vasculitis. Patients with biopsy-proven kidney involvement of ANCA vasculitis will be included in this trial at diagnosis. All patients will receive a standard of care immunosuppressive (SOC) therapy combining corticosteroids and rituximab (375 mg/m2/week for 4 consecutive weals followed by 500 mg re-infusion every 6 months). They will be randomized 1:1 to receive either pioglitazone 30 mg/day or placebo for 6 months, on top of SOC. The primary objective of this trial is to demonstrate that pioglitazone reduces kidney damage, reflected by the early improvement of proteinuria and serum creatinine levels. The secondary objectives will be to assess the efficacy of this drug on the reduction of hypertension and metabolic effects of glucocorticoids, to measure its impact on vasculitis activity and to evaluate the safety profile of pioglitazone in this population.
Morning urine samples of patients with IgA nephropathy, idiopathic membranous nephropathy, diabetic nephropathy, and minimal degenerative nephropathy confirmed by renal needle biopsy in our hospital from November 2020 to January 2022 were collected. By scanning the morning urine samples of corresponding patients with microhyperspectral imager, machine learning and deep learning were used to classify microhyperspectral images, and the classification accuracy was greater than 85%. Thus, hyperspectral imaging technology could be used as a non-invasive diagnostic means to assist the diagnosis of glomerular diseases.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of KP104 in participants with IgAN and C3G. The study will start with enrolling the IgAN cohort. Approximately 42 participants with IgAN will be enrolled in 2 stages: Stage 1 will be used to collect safety, immunogenicity, PK, and PD data to select the optimal biologic dose (OBD) of KP104 for IgAN, as well as to preliminarily explore the effect of KP104 on C3G. Stage 2 will be used to collect safety, immunogenicity, PK, PD, and efficacy data at the OBD dose of KP104 for IgAN and C3G. As soon as the OBD for IgAN is determined, eligible participants with C3G will be enrolled and dosed at the OBD for IgAN for a minimum of 48 weeks for weekly maintenance dosing and a minimum of 47 weeks for biweekly maintenance dosing. Approximately 10 participants with C3G will be enrolled.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of low-dose oral corticosteroids combined with cyclophosphamide therapy and low-dose corticosteroids monotherapy, on a background of maximal RAS inhibitor therapy, for IgA nephropathy with stage 3 or 4 chronic kidney disease.
This is a multicenter, double-blind randomized controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of Jinshuibao for patients with CKD due to glomerulonephritis, with a planned follow-up of 48 weeks.
CryoKid is a no-profit, multi-center, single-arm, open-label, pilot study. The study aims to evaluate the tolerability of MK-8742 (Elbasvir) / MK-5172 (Grazoprevir) administrated for 12 weeks without Ribavirin in patients with HCV chronic hepatitis (G1b and G4) and cryoglobulinemic nephropathy.
Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common glomerulonephritis worldwide. IgAN is progressive, particularly when patients have a significant proteinuria (proteinuria >1g/g creatinine), impaired kidney function, or elevated blood pressure. In 10 years, nearly 20-40% of these IgAN patients progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Early IgAN is tentatively defined when proteinuria is insignificant and kidney function and blood pressure are normal. Patients with early IgAN rarely progress to ESRD. However, 30-40% of patients with early IgAN ultimately developed a significant proteinuria and hypertension in 10 years. Therefore, earlier intervention may be needed if it can prevent the development of a significant proteinuria and hypertension. Since angiotensin ll receptor blocker (ARB) is drug of choice in reducing proteinuria and controlling blood pressure, the investigators hypothesized that early introduction of ARB may be beneficial in preventing the significant proteinuria development in early IgAN patients. To prove the hypothesis, the investigators plan the current interventional study.
