Read our Kidney Disease research guide →This is a research study designed to collect and analyze blood and urine samples from people who have immune system-related kidney diseases—conditions where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the kidneys. By studying these samples, researchers hope to better understand why these diseases develop, how they progress, and how people respond to current treatments.
Many immune-related kidney diseases are rare or not fully understood, which makes it hard for doctors to predict who will get better and who might have complications. This study exists to gather important information that could eventually lead to better ways to diagnose, monitor, and treat these conditions.

As a participant, you would visit the study center where researchers would collect your blood and urine samples as part of your regular medical care. The study also gathers information about your symptoms, test results, and how you respond to any treatments you're receiving. Your samples and data will be used to help researchers learn more about immune kidney diseases and develop better treatments in the future.
