Call for Early Career Investigator and Underrepresented Minority Travel Fellowship Applications: Diabetic Kidney Disease: Drug Discovery and Clinical Development Challenges
Discussion Group Diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in the United States, and is associated with elevated cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The progression of kidney disease in patients with diabetes occurs over many years, and interventions such as glycemic control and blood pressure lowering with inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system have been shown to slow this progression. Despite the standard of care, the prevalence of patients with ESRD secondary to diabetic nephropathy continues to rise. Recently, several drugs in late clinical development have fail...
