A macrovascular complication of diabetes, diabetic nephropathy is progressive, chronic kidney disease seen in patients with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, usually after at least 10 years of hyperglycemia (high blood glucose levels). The three main lesions that are seen in the kidney in patients with diabetes are glomerular lesions, vascular lesions, and pyelonephritis. This brick will focus primarily on the first two of these three lesions; diabetic pyelonephritis is covered in a separate brick. After listening to this AudioBrick, you should be able to: Define diabetic nephropathy. Outline the timeline of progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN) by urine, serum, and histologic criteria. Describe the diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy. Outline the prevention of diabetic nephropathy and, once it is established, how to slow its progression. Describe the management of diabetic nephropathy. You can also check out the original brick from our Renal collection, which is available for free.

In this episode of Cardio Buzz, host and guest Dr. Daniel Jones discuss contrast nephropathy, a kidney injury caused by contrast agents used in medical imaging, and a promising intervention to reduce its incidence. Dr. Jones explains that inorganic nitrates, which are naturally found in green leafy vegetables, have shown significant potential in preventing contrast-induced nephropathy and associated acute kidney injuries in a recent study. This study involved 640 high-risk patients and demonstrated that inorganic nitrates reduced kidney injuries by 60% and improved long-term cardiovascular outcomes. The episode concludes with a conversation about the practical implications and future research plans for this intervention.

Dr. Marshall Fordyce, CEO and Founder of Vera Therapeutics, discusses the company's patient-centric approach to developing new medicines for autoimmune diseases. Vera is currently in Phase 3 with a molecule called Atacicept, which targets B cells in autoimmune diseases. They focus on IgA nephropathy, a rare kidney disease, and the third most common cause of kidney failure. A key concern is that declining kidney function is often misdiagnosed and not screened for because the early warning signs are so subtle. Marshall explains, "Let me give you an example of our lead indication. So, our molecule in development is called atacicept. It targets the immune system in the specific area of B cells, and B cells are the factories of our antibodies, which we need to fight infection over our lifetime. But in patients with autoimmune disease, these B cells are overstimulated, they're overactive, and there are only a few medicines that target B cells with an appropriate balance of safety and efficacy. We had an insight that the science told us that by inhibiting two key factors in the body, BAFF and APRIL, we could normalize that overactivity of B cells and have better outcomes." "Now traditional drug development may be long and expensive. We were very strategic in picking IgA nephropathy. This is an area that has had very little drug development over the last decade. A few small companies started to become interested in this area, and thankfully, because of patient advocacy, the FDA allowed a surrogate endpoint in Phase 3 trials, which made it more efficient to bring this molecule forward. So, there are now two drugs on the market for the first time in the last three or four years, for two new drugs in IgA nephropathy. They don't target B cells, which is really what's driving this disease. They work downstream, or they're nonspecific." "What Vera did differently is that we thought that we could actually demonstrate that kidney function, which in these young patients is declining at an alarming rate, if we could demonstrate that kidney function doesn't decline, that would be meaningful. It would be a significant leap. We don't see that happen in "traditional" drug development often, in my view. So, I think what's different here is that we're picking an area where we think we can intervene and, in early-stage development, show a meaningful improvement in outcomes for patients." #VeraTherapeutics #KidneyDisease #RareDisease #BCells #Immunotherapy #AutoimmuneDiseases #IgANephropathy veratx.com Download the transcript here

A macrovascular complication of diabetes, diabetic nephropathy is progressive, chronic kidney disease seen in patients with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, usually after at least 10 years of hyperglycemia (high blood glucose levels). The three main lesions that are seen in the kidney in patients with diabetes are glomerular lesions, vascular lesions, and pyelonephritis. This brick will focus primarily on the first two of these three lesions; diabetic pyelonephritis is covered in a separate brick. After listening to this AudioBrick, you should be able to: Define diabetic nephropathy. Outline the timeline of progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN) by urine, serum, and histologic criteria. Describe the diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy. Outline the prevention of diabetic nephropathy and, once it is established, how to slow its progression. Describe the management of diabetic nephropathy. You can also check out the original brick from our Renal collection, which is available for free.

The kidney is one of the organs necessary to filter blood, composed of tiny functional units that separate waste products from molecules the body should retain. Chronic kidney disease is a significant international problem, with up to 10% of the population requiring treatment, and extreme cases requiring dialysis and/or transplantation with significant personal and public health costs. In today's episode we speak with Dr. Andrew King, Chief Scientific Officer of Chinook Therapeutics.  We discuss rare diseases of the kidney, such as disorders that lead to nephropathy, proteinuria, and oxalic acid deposition, along with how the next generation of drugs work to target these issues. www.chinooktx.com

To receive up to 1.0 CME/CE credit please complete the evaluation and request form here:  https://www.ceconcepts.com/igan-ee-podcastThis activity will take learners on a deep dive into the pathophysiology of proteinuric glomerular disease, with an incisive focus on IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Expert faculty will review the totality of emerging evidence for novel therapeutics in IgAN, including an appraisal of consensus guidelines and regulatory updates. Finally, the session will conclude with a case-based segment wherein attendees will get to apply the principles they've learned to real-world clinical scenarios.Supported through an independent educational grant from Travere.
