BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome is a rare kidney
disease involving either immune-mediated or genetic alterations of podocyte
structure and function. The rare nature, heterogeneity, and slow evolution of the
disorder are major obstacles to systematic genotype-phenotype, intervention, and
outcome studies, hampering the development of evidence-based diagnostic and
therapeutic concepts. To overcome these limitations, the PodoNet Consortium has
created an international registry for congenital nephrotic syndrome and
childhood-onset steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. DESIGN, SETTING,
PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS: Since August of 2009, clinical, biochemical,
genetic, and histopathologic information was collected both retrospectively and
prospectively from 1655 patients with childhood-onset steroid-resistant nephrotic
syndrome, congenital nephrotic syndrome, or persistent subnephrotic proteinuria
of likely genetic origin at 67 centers in 21 countries through an online portal.
RESULTS: Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome manifested in the first 5 years of
life in 64% of the patients. Congenital nephrotic syndrome accounted for 6% of
all patients. Extrarenal abnormalities were reported in 17% of patients. The most
common histopathologic diagnoses were FSGS (56%), minimal change nephropathy
(21%), and mesangioproliferative GN (12%). Mutation screening was performed in
1174 patients, and a genetic disease cause was identified in 23.6% of the
screened patients. Among 14 genes with reported mutations, abnormalities in NPHS2
(n=138), WT1 (n=48), and NPHS1 (n=41) were most commonly identified. The
proportion of patients with a genetic disease cause decreased with increasing
manifestation age: from 66% in congenital nephrotic syndrome to 15%-16% in
schoolchildren and adolescents. Among various intensified immunosuppressive
therapy protocols, calcineurin inhibitors and rituximab yielded consistently high
response rates, with 40%-45% of patients achieving complete remission.
Confirmation of a genetic diagnosis but not the histopathologic disease type was
strongly predictive of intensified immunosuppressive therapy responsiveness.
Post-transplant disease recurrence was noted in 25.8% of patients without
compared with 4.5% (n=4) of patients with a genetic diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: The
PodoNet cohort may serve as a source of reference for future clinical and genetic
research in this rare but significant kidney disease.
