FSGS

Clinical Trials

Researchers have found that in some patients when two markers in the urine are at higher levels, this can indicate that a protein called TNF is an component in causing FSGS and Minimal Change Disease to be active.

 

In this study, we are looking to see if a medication called Humira will block the TNF pathway, causing the levels of the two urine markers to decrease.

Who may be eligible?

  • Willing to give urine sample to evaluate TNF activation for screening

  • FSGS or Minimal Change Disease on biopsy

  • 6-80 years of age

  • GFR > 30 ml/min

  • Urine protein ≥1.5 g/g creatinine at screening
