The Lupus Nephritis Management Renaissance.
2021
Abstract Over the past year, and for the first time ever, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved two drugs specifically for the treatment of lupus nephritis (LN). As the lupus community works toward understanding how to best use these new therapies, it is also an ideal time to begin to rethink the overall management strategy of LN. In addition to new drugs, this must include how to use kidney biopsies for management and not just diagnosis, how molecular technologies can be applied to interrogate biopsies and how such data can impact management, and how to incorporate LN biomarkers into management paradigms. Here we will review new developments in these areas of LN, and put them into perspective for disease management now and in the future.
