After being diagnosed with genetic FSGS, a form of kidney disease caused by a mutation of the APOL1 gene, Therochelle decided to undergo genetic testing. Listen to Therochelle’s story: https://t.co/zXXZU2yKkZ

Thank you @Vertex for making our APOL1 patient video series possible.

There is a treatment in clinical trial for kidney disease due to APOL1 genetic variants. We hope the ongoing phase 3 trial is positive because it will help many Nigerians and West Africans. Read our blog post on this cause of kidney disease https://t.co/KZIt1lTvP0

APOL1 variants cause kidney disease and accelerate progression of kidney disease. In one study, the frequency of APOL1 high-risk genotype was 6.2%, which varied by ethnic group: Hausa/Fulani (2.1%), Igbo (49.1%), and Yoruba (14.5%). @nigeriahealthwatch @healthevangelist @docneto1

In a phase 2a study, 16 participants with APOL1 nephropathy received inaxaplin, an inhibitor of APOL1 channel function. Among 13 evaluable participants, the mean reduction in proteinuria was 47.6% at week 13. https://t.co/QHcvbYEmiz
