What this Trial Is About
This research focuses on patients with immune system-related kidney diseases such as nephrotic syndrome, glomerulonephritis, membranous nephropathy, lupus nephritis, and nephritis linked to connective tissue disorders. It aims to study the causes, specific abnormalities, and clinical characteristics of these kidney diseases caused by immune system problems. The study also includes patients with immune diseases who might develop kidney disease later. Participants include those with known or suspected immunologically-mediated kidney diseases or immune system diseases that could affect the kidneys. Researchers collect clinical and laboratory data, including blood and urine samples, to better understand the diseases. The study observes disease progression, responses to standard treatments, and explores immune system components involved in these kidney conditions. During the study, participants undergo medical history reviews, physical exams, and standard laboratory tests to assess their condition and response to treatment. Blood and urine samples are collected for immunological research. Researchers measure changes in immune cells, metabolic and endocrine functions, and analyze biological markers related to kidney disease. The study is ongoing and continuously collects biospecimens to support future research.
