Great to work with an amazing team and see this study out. Although evidence of efficacy of this drug was lacking, we showed rigorous trials in rare kidney diseases are now feasible. Hopefully effective treatments for patients with #Alport syndrome will arrive soon… RaDaR

Amazing lecture on Alport Syndrome by Michelle Rheault at GlomCon Fellwoship. ▫️Autosomal dominant Alport syndrome is more common than previously recognized. ▫️Be aggressive about treatment of patients with Alport syndrome and proteinuria with ACE inhibitors/ARBs.
