      Pages: ii11 - ii18
      Abstract: ABSTRACTBackgroundComplement alternative pathway (AP) activation is linked to immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) prognosis severity, but Bb fragment's role is unclear. We examined the relationship between serum Bb fragment concentration at IgAN diagnosis and disease activity and outcomes.MethodsThis retrospective study included 125 biopsy-proven IgAN patients [age 39.9 years, 75% male, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 82 ml/min, proteinuria 0.5 g/day] enrolled from 1984 to 2010 and followed for a minimum of 18 months. Monitoring continued until the last follow-up, end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) or death. Serum Bb fragment was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay at diagnosis. Oxford classification and global optical score (GOS) were utilized for pathology assessment.ResultsPatients were followed for a median of 16 years; 42% developed chronic kidney disease stage ≥3, 19% reached ESKD and 9% died. Serum Bb fragment concentration negatively correlated with eGFR values at the last follow-up and positively with vascular and tubular histopathological indices. In univariate Cox regression analyses, higher Bb fragment concentration was associated with ESKD alongside older age, increased body mass index, arterial hypertension, lower eGFR, higher proteinuria, E1, S1, T1–2, GOS and corticotherapy. Patients with Bb levels ≥14.3 μg/ml had shorter mean kidney survival time (19.5 versus 22.7 years, P = .07); after adjusting for progression risk factors, the association persisted [hazard ratio 4.76 (95% confidence interval 1.56–14.43)].ConclusionsSerum Bb fragment concentration at diagnosis may predict long-term IgAN outcomes, potentially due to AP activation at the endothelial surface. Further research is needed to confirm these results and evaluate Bb fragment's role in IgAN management.

  • The plethora of immunomodulatory drugs: opportunities for immune-mediated
           kidney diseases

    • Free pre-print version: Loading...

      Pages: ii19 - ii28
      Abstract: ABSTRACTIn recent decades, insights into the molecular pathways involved in disease have revolutionized the treatment of autoimmune diseases. A plethora of targeted therapies have been identified and are at varying stages of clinical development in renal autoimmunity. Some of these agents, such as rituximab or avacopan, have been approved for the treatment of immune-mediated kidney disease, but kidney disease lags behind more common autoimmune disorders in new drug development. Evidence is accumulating as to the importance of adaptive immunity, including abnormalities in T-cell activation and signaling, and aberrant B-cell function. Furthermore, innate immunity, particularly the complement and myeloid systems, as well as pathologic responses in tissue repair and fibrosis, play a key role in disease. Collectively, these mechanistic studies in innate and adaptive immunity have provided new insights into mechanisms of glomerular injury in immune-mediated kidney diseases. In addition, inflammatory pathways common to several autoimmune conditions exist, suggesting that the repurposing of some existing drugs for the treatment of immune-mediated kidney diseases is a logical strategy. This new understanding challenges the clinical investigator to translate new knowledge into novel therapies leading to better disease outcomes. This review highlights promising immunomodulatory therapies tested for immune-mediated kidney diseases as a primary indication, details current clinical trials and discusses pathways that could be targeted in the future.

           vaccines and antimicrobial prophylaxis

    • Free pre-print version: Loading...

      Pages: ii40 - ii49
      Abstract: ABSTRACTThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic revealed that our understanding of infectious complications and strategies to mitigate severe infections in patients with glomerular diseases is limited. Beyond COVID-19, there are several infections that specifically impact care of patients receiving immunosuppressive measures. This review will provide an overview of six different infectious complications frequently encountered in patients with glomerular diseases, and will focus on recent achievements in terms of vaccine developments and understanding of the use of specific antimicrobial prophylaxis. These include influenza virus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, reactivation of a chronic or past infection with hepatitis B virus in cases receiving B-cell depletion, reactivation of cytomegalovirus, and cases of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia in patients with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody–associated vasculitis. Varicella zoster virus infections are particularly frequent in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and an inactivated vaccine is available to use as an alternative to the attenuated vaccine in patients receiving immunosuppressants. As with COVID-19 vaccines, vaccine responses are generally impaired in older patients, and after recent administration of B-cell depleting agents, and high doses of mycophenolate mofetil and other immunosuppressants. Strategies to curb infectious complications are manifold and will be outlined in this review.

  • The five types of glomerulonephritis classified by pathogenesis, activity
           and chronicity (GN-AC)

    • Free pre-print version: Loading...

      Pages: ii3 - ii10
      Abstract: ABSTRACTGlomerulonephritis (GN) is a diverse group of immune-mediated disorders. Currently, GN is classified largely by histological patterns that are difficult to understand and teach, and most importantly, do not indicate treatment choices. Indeed, altered systemic immunity is the primary pathogenic process and the key therapeutic target in GN. Here, we apply a conceptual framework of immune-mediated disorders to GN guided by immunopathogenesis and hence immunophenotyping: (i) infection-related GN require pathogen identification and control; (ii) autoimmunity-related GN, defined by presence of autoantibodies and (iii) alloimmunity-related GN in transplant recipients both require the suppression of adaptive immunity in lymphoid organs and bone marrow; (iv) autoinflammation-related GN, e.g. inborn errors of immunity diagnosed by genetic testing, requires suppression of single cytokine or complement pathways; and (v) Monoclonal gammopathy-related GN requires B or plasma cell clone-directed therapy. A new GN classification should include disease category, immunological activity to tailor the use of the increasing number of immunomodulatory drugs, and chronicity to trigger standard chronic kidney disease care including the evolving spectrum of cardio-renoprotective drugs. Certain biomarkers allow diagnosis and the assessment of immunological activity and disease chronicity without kidney biopsy. The use of these five GN categories and a therapy-focused GN classification is likely to overcome some of the existing hurdles in GN research, management and teaching by reflecting disease pathogenesis and guiding the therapeutic approach.

  • Complement inhibitors for kidney disease

      Pages: ii29 - ii39
      Abstract: ABSTRACTA refined understanding of the role of complement in the pathogenesis of glomerular and other kidney diseases has, over the past two decades, been matched by the development of novel, complement-targeting therapies. As we increasingly recognize the important role that complement activation across all three pathways—classical, lectin and alternative—plays in glomerular lesions both rare (e.g. C3 glomerulopathy) and common (e.g. immunoglobulin A nephropathy), we can identify avenues for precise, targeted approaches to modifying the natural history of these kidney diseases. In this review, we survey the evidence on using complement inhibition from the earliest, small-scale studies focusing on C5-targeting agents to more recent, large, multicenter, randomized trials utilizing complement blockade higher up in the complement pathway at the level of C3. We conclude by examining where the field of complement targeting therapy may be headed in light of these studies.

  • CKD therapy to improve outcomes of immune-mediated glomerular diseases

    • Free pre-print version: Loading...

      Pages: ii50 - ii57
      Abstract: ABSTRACTThe management of immunoglobulin A nephropathy, membranous nephropathy, lupus nephritis, anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody–associated vasculitis, C3 glomerulonephritis, autoimmune podocytopathies and other immune-mediated glomerular disorders is focused on two major treatment goals, preventing overall mortality and the loss of kidney function. Since minimizing irreversible kidney damage best serves both goals, the management of immune-mediated kidney disorders must focus on the two central pathomechanisms of kidney function decline, i.e., controlling the underlying immune disease process (e.g. with immunotherapies) and controlling the non-immune mechanisms of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. Here we review the pathophysiology of these non-immune mechanisms of CKD progression and discuss non-drug and drug interventions to attenuate CKD progression in immune-mediated kidney disorders. Non-pharmacological interventions include reducing salt intake, normalizing body weight, avoiding superimposed kidney injuries, smoking cessation and regular physical activity. Approved drug interventions include inhibitors of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system and sodium–glucose cotransporter-2. Numerous additional drugs to improve CKD care are currently being tested in clinical trials. Here we discuss how and when to use these drugs in the different clinical scenarios of immune-mediated kidney diseases.
