Condition(s) studied

IgA Nephropathy (IgAN)Henoch Schönlein Purpura Nephritis

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Gd-IgA1 monitoring

Gd-IgA1 monitoring: Participants in the experimental group will undergo a total of five Gd-IgA1 tests at baseline and during the follow-up period, and their clinicians will use these results to guide medication adjustment.

Study summary

The goal of this open-label, randomized study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the personalized treatment model in which Gd-IgA1 is dynamically monitored to guide medication adjustment in progressive IgAN patients treated with Nefecon or telitacicept.

Researchers will compare two groups of participants: those who have Gd-IgA1 checked regularly during treatment, and those who do not. This is to find out if regular Gd-IgA1 checks can help doctors adjust medication better and get better treatment results.
