Background
Cure Glomerulonephropathy (CureGN) is a multi-center(66 sites), NIDDK-funded longitudinal observational cohort study of 2400 prevalent (biopsy within 5 years) patients with minimal change disease, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, membranous nephropathy, and IgA nephropathy (IgAN), including IgA vasculitis (IgAV, previously referred to as Henoch-Schonlein Purpura). The IgAN/IgAV cohort has recently filled and we present the enrollment data for pediatric IgAN and IgAV.
Methods
Data for all pediatric patients (<18 years) with biopsy confirmed IgAN or IgAV were reviewed. This analysis compares those with IgAN and IgAV. Data (lab, treatment) up to the time of enrollment are shown using descriptive statistics and univariate tests with results as median(IQR) or N(%).
Results
590 patients are enrolled in the IgAN/IgAV cohort including 235 pediatric patients (143 (61%) IgAN and 92 (39%) IgAV). A comparison of IgAN and IgAV is presented in Table 1. Those with IgAV differed significantly in age at diagnosis, disease duration, proteinuria at biopsy, and serum albumin at biopsy. Those with IgAV were significantly more likely than those with IgAN to receive immunosuppression and corticosteroids (Table 1).
Conclusion
This study reveals significant differences in the demographics, disease presentation and treatments in children with IgAV and IgAN. Participants will now be followed longitudinally as part of CureGN to further define disease characteristics such as disease progression, pathophysiology and response to therapy.
