Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

#66 Patient-reported outcomes in clinical practice, with Paul Cockwell
Q: How do we approach this from the patient's perspective so that we don't miss out on what is important to them?
We need to integrate patient-reported outcome measures into clinical practice and focus on asking the right questions.
#64 Evolution of Treatment Paradigms in ANCA Vasculitis, with David Jayne
Q: What are the promising approaches on the horizon for the next decade?
Research is focusing on B-cell drugs, CAR-T therapies, and complement inhibitors for improved treatment options.
#64 Evolution of Treatment Paradigms in ANCA Vasculitis, with David Jayne
Q: What is the current role of these biologics and targeted therapies compared with conventional regimens?
Rituximab serves as the primary treatment while Avacopan's role is being defined, particularly for patients with contraindications to steroids.
#64 Evolution of Treatment Paradigms in ANCA Vasculitis, with David Jayne
Q: How do you think that the treatment strategies for ANCA-associated vasculitis have evolved over the past two decades?
Outcomes have improved, but there is still significant mortality and progression to end-stage kidney disease among some patients due to slow diagnosis.
#61 Tubulointerstitial nephritis – the Cinderella of nephrology, with Beatriz Sanchez Alamo
Q: Do you believe, as I do, that we are ignoring TIN and if so, what should we be doing differently?
Indeed, I fully agree with the title of this talk, which is the Cinderella of all nephrology. TIN has been neglected during many years because it was considered as a mild form of kidney disease.
