Added By: ben_adminThere are a number of BAFF and/or APRIL inhibitors for IgAN (and for glomerulonephritis) -- do dual BAFF/APRIL inhibitors have any advantages over single-pathway BAFF or APRIL inhibitors, especially in IgAN? Thank you.
What BAFF/APRIL inhibitor(s) do you expect to emerge as leading treatment(s) for IgAN?
Added By: userab1cba17What additional data should povetacicept, or any BAFF/APRIL inhibitor in IgAN, generate to differentiate themselves from the BAFF/APRIL inhibitor in IgAN competitive set, in addition to UPCR and eGFR data?
