Idiopathic Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and Treatment With ACTH

Stanford University·interventional·Posted Jul 1, 2010·Updated Sep 1, 2014

In Brief

A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating H.P. Acthar Gel for Kidney Diseases. Completed, enrolled 15 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

FSGS is an immunologic disorder wherein circulating immune proteins cause damage to the kidneys and progressive injury and scarring. Corticosteroid therapy is occasionally, but not nearly universally, successful in reducing proteinuria, and when patients respond, they have a favorable prognosis. The investigators believe that ACTH therapy (H.P. Acthar Gel) can provide a more rapid, well tolerated reduction in glomerular injury.
