Shocking first high impact trial of the day. Fish oil reduces CV events in dialysis patients! #Pisces #kidneywk Simultaneous pub in NEJM www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

I mean. What? Do we believe this? Nothing works in dialysis except...fish oil?

3/10 One post methods VALIANT trial was a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial 👉 Pegcetacoplan (=63) vs placebo (= 61) 👉 Primary Outcome: urinary protein-to-creatinine reduction ratio at wk 26 👉 Secondary Outcomes: composite renal end-point and 50% fall in protein-creatinine ratio.

1/10 Last #NephJC we discussed Pegcetacoplan in C3 Glomerulopathy and Immune-Complex MPGN #TenPostNephJC Given the central role of complement dysregulation in C3 glomerulonephritis, we assessed whether complement-targeted therapies confer therapeutic benefit. www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

Let’s keep in mind that VALIANT had less than 10% history of transplant #NephJC
