Raichoudhury and Spinowitz discuss the clinical complexities of patients with difficult to manage anemia of CKD, and how new treatments may address some of these issues. Third, Dr. McCullough continues the theme of complex patients by describing treatment of patients with cardiorenal syndrome. Fourth, Dr. Agarwal discusses iron homeostasis and potential mechanisms underlying poor responsiveness to current therapies. Finally, Drs. Rastogi and Lerma discuss the proposed changes in care for patients with CKD intended to make treatment of late-stage CKD including those with anemia more accessible and broadly available.
