Summary
This study helps people with certain kidney diseases (like nephrotic syndrome and FSGS) find clinical trials that match their specific disease profile. Researchers analyze participants' molecular data to recommend targeted therapies in ongoing trials. The goal is to improve treatment success by matching the right patient to the right drug.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Consented and eligible participants in the biopsied or non-biopsied cohorts of the NEPTUNE observational study 2. Must be potentially eligible for the NEPTUNE Match partnering trials (e.g. if no trial is enrolling a participant under age 6, those under 6 are not eligible). Note: NEPTUNE Match partnering trials and associated eligibility criteria are expected to be dynamic and change as trial protocols are developed, activated, and amended. 3. Regular nephrology healthcare provided at a NEPTUNE study site. 4. Willing and able to consent, and as appropriate assent, to participate in NEPTUNE Match Exclusion Criteria: Currently non-NEPTUNE observational study participants are not eligible to be matched to a clinical trial using these biomarker assessments. Exclusion Criteria: 1\. Non-English or non-Spanish speaking
