Expert Roundtables Podcast: Advances and Future Directions in IgA Nephropathy Research

expert roundtables by Richard Lafayette, MD, FACP; Carla M. Nester, MD, MSA, FASN; Jai Radhakrishnan, MD, MS
Overview

Clinical research has led to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of a handful of effective targeted therapies for IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Research on other agents is ongoing, and there is hope that clinical outcomes can be further improved with combination therapies. Our featured experts review recent and ongoing research and their potential impact on the future of IgAN.
