This 4-part episode focuses on the PARASOL Initiative and the landscape of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis treatment.

Panelists discuss how clinicians determine the significance of proteinuria in assessing patients for potential IgA nephropathy (IgAN), including the levels and patterns that prompt further investigation and the specific diagnostic red flags that may suggest IgAN over other kidney disorders.

Panelists discuss how clinicians can differentiate IgA nephropathy from other glomerular diseases, such as lupus nephritis and membranous nephropathy, that may present with similar clinical features.

Panelists discuss how misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis of IgA nephropathy occur, highlighting the primary barriers to timely detection and strategies to overcome these challenges.

Panelists discuss how IgA nephropathy affects patients’ quality of life, addressing both the physical symptoms and the emotional challenges associated with the condition.

Panelists discuss the importance of screening and monitoring family members of individuals with IgA nephropathy, noting that up to 15% of cases are familial and outlining recommendations for the frequency of such assessments.

Panelists discuss potential biomarkers and clinical indicators that can aid in predicting disease outcomes for individual patients with IgA nephropathy.

Panelists discuss the immune system dysregulation underlying IgA nephropathy and highlight how this mechanism differs from those seen in other glomerular diseases.

Panelists discuss the progressive nature of immunoglobulin AIgA nephropathy (IgAN) and identify key factors that may accelerate its progression toward end-stage renal disease (ESRD).

Panelists discuss how IgA nephropathy presents in patients, often remaining asymptomatic until significant progression occurs, and explore the various subtypes that exhibit distinct clinical features.

Katherine Tuttle, MD, joins the podcast for a deep dive into the latest FLOW data from Kidney Week 2024.

Hiddo Heerspink, PhD, PharmD, joins the podcast during Kidney Week 2024 to discuss the SMART trial and the potential of semaglutide in people with kidney disease without diabetes.

Neuen, Wadhwani, and Barratt discuss atacicept promise in IgA nephropathy based on phase 2b ORIGIN OLE results, at-home use, and the future of kidney disease care.

Kidney Compass: Navigating Clinical Trials is a multimedia podcast from HCPLive hosted by Brendon Neuen, MBBS, PhD, and Shikha Wadhwani, MD, MS, aimed at exploring the latest in clinical trials and updates in nephrology.
