New tests could transform care for rare kidney diseases
NCT ID NCT05985122
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to develop better lab tests to diagnose and monitor two rare kidney diseases: atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) and C3 glomerulopathy (C3G). Researchers will analyze blood, cells, and kidney tissue from 180 patients and healthy volunteers to find markers that help classify the disease and guide treatment. The goal is to make diagnosis more accurate and personalize care with existing or new drugs.
