Abstract

Inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) are cornerstones of supportive therapy in patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN). In the randomized STOP-IgAN trial we observed that the addition of immunosuppressive therapy to optimized supportive care did not significantly improve renal outcomes over the 3-year study phase as compared to supportive measures alone. Here we analyzed the effects of single versus dual RAS blockade during the 6-month run-in phase that preceded the randomized study phase on renal endpoints.
