Navigating Adult-Onset IgA Vasculitis-Associated Nephritis
Purpose of Review: IgA vasculitis (IgAV), formerly Henoch–Schonlein purpura, is the most common systemic vasculitis in childhood. In adults, however, this condition is poorly understood, yet associated with more severe disease and poorer outcomes. This necessitates the need for early diagnosis and management. Scope of Review: We describe the pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and diagnosis of IgAV in adults. Poor outcomes are often due to the high frequency of glomerulonephritis in IgAV-IgA vasculitis-associated nephritis (IgAVN). We hence also aim to summarize the latest clinical data regarding treatment strategies in IgAVN. The diagnosis and differentiation in histology between IgAVN and IgA nephropathy (IgAN) remain a challenge. Review of treatment therapies: Pathological mechanisms between IgAVN and IgAN appear to be consistent between the two, and data from IgAN are often extrapolated to IgAVN. The role of various immunosuppression therapies remains controversial, and in this review, we will discuss immunosuppression use and highlight evidence surrounding emerging and promising novel therapies in IgAVN/IgAN. Our aim for this review is to guide future treatment strategies and direct future studies.
