IgAN Risk Prediction Tool (Adults)a
aThe International IgAN Prediction Tool incorporates clinical information at the time of biopsy and additional research is needed to determine if the output can be used at other time points in the progression of the disease. This tool cannot be used to determine the likely impact of any particular treatment regimen.1,2
