Chronic Kidney Disease Prognosis Consortium: Advancing Kidney Disease Care Worldwide
Official title: Chronic Kidney Disease Prognosis Consortium (CKD-PC)
Funded at New York University School of Medicine · NIH-11384998 · Data updated 2026-11-12
A global group of researchers is building better ways to predict how CKD progresses and how it affects health, with the aim of guiding care for adults around the world.

Who could benefit from this research
✓Could help
Adults with CKD or at risk for CKD who could benefit from improved risk prediction and personalized care strategies.
✕Less likely to help
Individuals without CKD or those not involved in risk assessment or guideline development may not directly benefit.
What this research studies
This project is the third cycle of the CKD-Prognosis Consortium, bringing together about 300 investigators and data from over 30 million people to improve how we understand CKD progression. The team will develop and test risk tools and guidelines to help clinicians predict outcomes like heart problems, infections, and cancer in people with CKD. They will also address questions about testing methods and how to adapt risk calculators to different settings worldwide. The work relies on centralized data analysis and advanced meta-analysis techniques to provide rigorous, clinically useful insights.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, patients could receive more precise risk assessments and better-informed care plans for CKD and related health issues.
How similar studies have gone: Previous CKD prognosis work has led to improved staging and risk tools; this cycle aims to further validate and expand those tools.
