Therapeutics in AKI: From Bench to Bedside, Including the Burton D. Rose, MD, Endowed Lectureship

November 08, 2025 | 02:00 PM - 04:00 PM

Location: General Assembly B, Convention Center

Session Description

Despite a lack of pharmacological therapeutics for AKI, this last year has seen significant advances of potential therapeutic agents. Several new or repurposed agents are undergoing clinical trials for prevention and treatment of AKI. This session provides an overview of the mechanistic justification for the use of these agents and the clinical trial data regarding their performance in AKI.

ASN gratefully acknowledges Wolters Kluwer (publisher of UpToDate), the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Department of Medicine Foundation, the Rose Family, and several of Dr. Rose's colleagues for supporting this lectureship.

  • Compare new therapeutic agents studied in clinical populations and their application to individual patients
  • Identify opportunities and challenges in AKI research to improve outcomes

Learning Pathway(s)
