Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for adults and older children who have kidney diseases related to the immune system or conditions that could potentially lead to kidney disease. Participants will undergo health checks and tests to help researchers learn more about these conditions.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
I am an adult 18 years or older, or a child 10-17 years old.
I have been diagnosed with an immune-related kidney disease.
I have a disease that could lead to kidney problems.
I can understand and agree to provide written consent.
You may not be able to join if
I have other medical issues that could confuse the study results.
I have medical or surgical conditions that cannot be properly cared for.

Kidney diseases related to the immune system include, nephrotic syndrome, glomerulonephritis, membranous nephropathy, lupus nephritis, and nephritis associated with connective tissue disorders.

Kidney diseases related to the immune system include, nephrotic syndrome, glomerulonephritis, membranous nephropathy, lupus nephritis, and nephritis associated with connective tissue disorders.
This study will allow researchers to admit and follow patients suffering from autoimmune diseases of the kidney. It will attempt to provide information about the causes and specific abnormalities associated with autoimmune kidney disease.
Patients with kidney disease as a result of their immune system, and patients with diseases of the immune system who may later develop kidney disease, will be potential subjects for this study.
Patients will undergo a history and physical examination, and standard laboratory test to more closely understand the causes, signs, symptoms, and responses to medication of these diseases. Based on these evaluations the patients may qualify as candidates for other experimental studies. At any time these patients may be asked to submit blood or urine samples for further research.
