IgA Nephropathy Disease Understanding

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is an autoimmune disease that attacks the kidneys. It affects blood filtration in the small blood vessels of the kidneys. IgAN occurs when an abnormal protein damages the filtering unit (glomerulus) inside the kidneys.

IgAN is the most common glomerular disease worldwide but varies largely geographically. Studies assess the prevalence of IgAN in different worldwide regions and analyze factors responsible for geographic differences.

Study Period: 2018-2030

The true prevalence of IgAN is unknown since diagnosis requires a kidney biopsy. While the natural history of IgAN is highly variable, the disease typically follows a slowly progressive course. A recent study of 251 IgAN patients in the US reported that 53% progressed to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) over about 20 years. According to the 2019 USRDS Annual Report, more than 110,000 ESRD patients with glomerulonephritis are prevalent in the US, which shows that the prevalence of IgAN is also high. However, as there are no screening programs for school children in western countries like the US and Europe, diagnosis of IgAN does not occur until late.

According to the Italian register for renal biopsy (IRRB), out of 12,000 renal biopsies from 1996 to 2000, 68.7% revealed primary glomerulonephritis. The annual frequency of IgAN among primary GN was ~35%. A review of the regional renal biopsy registry of the German RWTH Aachen University Hospital included data of 1208 biopsies over 24 years (1990-2013). The study revealed that the average annual biopsy incidence was 6.1 biopsies per million population and the frequency of kidney biopsies increased significantly over the years. Primary glomerulonephritis (GN) accounted for nearly two-thirds (58.4%) of all native kidney biopsies, and IgAN was the leading histological diagnosis (34.7%) among all GN.
