Improving patient lives through education, empowerment, advocacy, and research with a vision to conquer Alport syndrome.
关于我们
Our mission is to improve the lives of those affected by Alport Syndrome through education, empowerment, advocacy, and direct investment in research. ABOUT ALPORT SYNDROME Alport Syndrome is a rare genetic kidney disease that causes a decline in kidney function that often leads to kidney failure and need for transplant, hearing loss, eye conditions, and other complications. There is no cure for Alport syndrome, and no treatment proven to prevent the development of kidney failure. Early diagnosis is essential as there are medications to delay disease progression. The majority of the Foundation's resources are directed to research to find treatments and/or a cure, including the collection of human data through sponsoring its own patient registry in the United States and other natural history data including patient bio samples. The Alport Syndrome Foundation (ASF) is the leading independent nonprofit organization in the United States serving and giving a voice to the Alport syndrome community of patients and families.

The ALPESTRIA-1 study is a Phase 2 clinical study evaluating the safety, tolerability and benefit of three dose levels of the investigational drug Vonafexor on renal function and biomarkers in patients with Alport syndrome. The study aims to recruit 20 patients in the US and EU (France, Spain and Germany). ?? Vonafexor is a clinical-stage?compound with strong fibrolytic & anti-inflammatory effects already shown in the Phase 2 LIVIFY study and in various preclinical studies in Alport syndrome and severe Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Vonafexor has been administered to over 300 individuals in 9 clinical studies. ???? Alport syndrome is a rare kidney disease, a genetic disorder affecting 1 in 5,000-10,000 births. It is characterized by a progressive loss of kidney function. To date, no cure is available for patients suffering from Alport syndrome. ?

As a #raredisease, #Alportsyndrome is commonly misdiagnosed. Genetic testing is a powerful tool for accurate diagnosis, which can unlock access to treatments, clinical trial opportunities, and ways to connect with the larger community of patients and families.
