Filter by:The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of that test group was administered with Mycophenolate Mofetil in combination with corticosteroid in patients with advanced IgA nephropathy. The control group will be observed for up to 48 weeks without administration of Mycophenolate Mofetil.
This prospective cohort study is designed to examine the association between blood and urine biomarkers (including genetic variants) and long-term kidney disease progression among 2000 Chinese IgA nephropathy patients with relatively normal kidney function (eGFR≥60 ml/min/1.73 m2).
This main purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety, tolerability, dose response and efficacy of Atacicept in participants with IgA nephropathy and persistent proteinuria. The study hypothesis was that treatment with Atacicept would reduce proteinuria compared to placebo.
This prospective, randomized, controlled, multi-center clinical trial will evaluate the effect and security of reh-acteoside therapy for patients of IgA nephropathy.
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent primary glomerular disease worldwide and an important cause of end stage renal disease. IgAN has an incidence of 8-25 new cases/year/per million age-related population in adults and 3-5/new cases/year/per million age-related population in children and progresses to need of renal replacement treatment in 5-15% at 10 years and in about 20% at 20 years. The variability of the clinical course anticipates different treatment options. There is an absolute need of validated biomarkers to predict risk of progression and indication for treatment at early stages, when lesions can be reversible. This study aimed to evaluate IgAN progression and its histological and clinical correlates.
The anti-hinge region antibodies would be a relevant biomarker of IgA nephropathy. Beyond a prognostic value (which could increase the risk of Renal Absolute), the longitudinal monitoring for these antibodies could be of interest: (1) in the monitoring of patients (in place including a possible repetition renal biopsy); (2) to guide treatment decisions and (3) in clinical research, as an outcome (in substitution for the occurrence of kidney failure) in therapeutic trials IgA nephropathy. This research project constitutes the first step in validating these antibodies biomarker of IgA nephropathy and its main objective is to study the performance of the blood levels of anti-hinge region antibodies in the diagnosis of progressive forms of histologically IgA nephropathy as defined by the Renal Risk Absolute. The secondary objectives of this project are to establish a bio-collection that will allow us to search for other prognostic factors (genetic, cellular and serum) of IgA nephropathy and to evaluate the performance of Renal Absolute risk by integrating Oxford score, the new international histological classification.
The purpose of this study is to determine the location of periostin and urine periostin level in patients with lupus nephritis and IgA nephropathy.
The effect of tonsillectomy therapy on IgA nephropathy is still controversial.Few prospective,randomized investigations have examined how tonsillectomy affects the shortterm and longterm renal outcome of IgA nephropathy.This is A prospective,randomized ,controlled study to explore the longterm effect of tonsillectomy for patients with IgA nephropathy.
Phase 2, multi-center, open label extension study to evaluate 2 dose regimens of fostamatinib in approximately 25 subjects. The study will consist of 11 visits over 15 months.
IgA nephropathy occurs when IgA—a protein that helps the body fight infections—settles in the kidneys. IgA deposits may cause the kidneys to leak blood and sometimes protein in the urine. Proteinuria (abnormal amounts of protein in urine) can be a sign of kidney damage. Current treatments for IgA nephropathy is limited to Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) inhibitor medications with fish oil. ACE Inhibitors, also called ACEI medications, slows the angiotensin converting enzyme so that blood vessels can be relaxed. This study involves the study drugs, Acthar and Lisinopril (an ACEI medication routinely given for high blood pressure). In previous clinical studies, some subjects with IgA nephropathy have experienced reductions in proteinuria with consistent use of Acthar. Acthar is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and used to treat patients with proteinuria. The purpose is to study the safety and effectiveness of the study drug Acthar given at different doses.
