Mediators of Loin Pain in IgA Nephropathy (LO-PAIgN)

2026년 6월 9일 업데이트: University of Leicester

LO-PAIgN: Mediators of Loin Pain in Immunoglobulin-A Nephropathy

The goal of this observational study is to learn about loin pain in people with Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN).

The main question it aims to answer is:

What changes occur in the kidneys, urine, and blood when people with IgAN experience loin pain?

Participants will have MRI scans of their kidneys, provide urine and blood samples, and have their latest kidney function test results reviewed. For participants who experience loin pain, these assessments will be carried out during a pain episode and again when they are pain-free, so the results can be compared.

상세 설명

Some people with Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) experience loin pain, or pain around the kidneys, but the underlying cause of this pain is not well understood. Current treatment options often do not provide effective pain relief, and a better understanding of the mechanisms involved may support the development of more targeted treatments in the future and help understand what this pain may mean for the disease state.

This observational study will investigate whether loin pain in IgAN is associated with changes in the kidneys, kidney function, and biological markers in blood and urine. Participants will undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the kidneys to assess whether there are structural or tissue-related differences during episodes of pain compared with pain-free periods. The study will also assess the renal pelvis, the urine-collecting part of the kidney, to explore whether it may be involved in the development of pain.

Blood and urine samples will be collected to investigate whether biological molecules differ during pain episodes and pain-free periods. Urine samples will also be examined under the microscope to assess for the presence of blood cells or other features that may suggest kidney injury or inflammation.

Participants' most recent kidney function test results will also be reviewed to explore whether kidney function is associated with the presence or severity of loin pain. Together, these assessments aim to provide a better understanding of what happens in the kidneys and biological samples of people with IgAN when they experience loin pain.

연구 인구

The study population will include adults aged 18 years or over with a renal biopsy-confirmed diagnosis of Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) who have capacity to provide informed consent.

Participants will be recruited into two cohorts. Cohort A will include participants with IgAN who experience episodic or intermittent loin pain, defined as pain occurring at least once every 6 months. Cohort B will include participants with IgAN who have no history of loin pain.

Participants will be excluded if they have another renal disease, are receiving therapies that may affect immune-mediated pathways, have received a kidney transplant, are receiving dialysis, are taking part in an interventional study that may affect kidney function, or have conditions or implants that are not compatible with MRI scanning.
