Autosomal Dominant Tubulointerstitial Kidney Disease

Rare Disease Group

The group was established as part of the RaDaR initiative, in light of the increasing numbers of families being identified with this syndrome and following the pioneering work undertaken by Dr Anne Simmonds and others in the Purine Laboratory at Guy’s Hospital, London.

On Saturday 23rd March 2013 a FUAN Patient Support meeting was held at St Thomas’ Hospital London. A report of the event can be found here.

An ADTKD/UMOD Patient Information Day was held in London on Saturday 15th September 2018. A summary and photos of the event can be found below. ADTKD/UMOD patient information day summary

Group members will offer to collaborate with other groups such as the European Network for the Study of Orphan Nephropathies (EUNEFRON) and the ERA-EDTA Working Group on Inherited Kidney Disorders (WGIKD)

Our international contacts are:

  • Dr Stanislav Kmoch, Centre for Applied Genomics, Institute for Inherited Metabolic disorders, Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic
  • Dr Anthony J. Bleyer, Professor, Section on Nephrology, Wake Forest University School of Medicine Winston-Salem, NC 27157, USA

Members of this group are linked to PUMPA (the Purine Metabolic Patients Association) which has a strong patient representation as well as medical experts.
