Aktueller Stand der Therapie der renalen Anämie mittels HIF-Stabilisation

Zusammenfassung

Die renale Anämie ist eine häufige Begleiterkrankung bei Patienten mit fortgeschrittener chronischer Niereninsuffizienz (CKD: „chronic kidney disease“). Dies führt so weit, dass im Stadium der Dialysepflicht etwa 80 % der Patienten von dieser Begleiterkrankung betroffen sind und in der Regel eine spezifische Therapie notwendig ist. Der folgende Beitrag beleuchtet neue Therapieoptionen und diskutiert Pro und Contra auf Basis der entsprechenden Studien.
