Rad the latest summaries from the ISN Journal portfolio - International Society of Nephrology
Key takeaways
A kidney journal roundup describes one child with C3 glomerulopathy, a rare disease where the immune system damages the kidney's filters. This disease often comes back in the new kidney after a transplant. The child was given a drug called pegcetacoplan before and after a living-donor transplant to try to stop that, and was followed for about eight months. This is a single patient, so it is a hint worth watching and cannot show the drug works.
