Overview of the project
Prof. Loreto Gesualdo, MD FERAProject Coordinator
CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE
CKD affects 10% of the EU population
Silent Epidemic Disease (Social Problem) that needs early diagnosis to prevent or to reduce progression to ESKD
Replacement therapies such as dialysis or renal transplantation
High Costs on National Health System
(40,000/80,000 euro/year per patient)
PRECISION MEDICINE
To identify new biomarkers in biological fluids that precede the appearance of obvious clinical signs
To correlate the clinical phenotype with specific kidney
damage patterns
To develop silicon models capable of predicting the
evolution of the disease and identify the most appropriate
therapeutic targets
New strategies for accurate diagnosis and prognosis of kidney disease
Precision medicine is the most effective tool to get early diagnosis of common and rare kidney disease
Roadmap to precision medicine in Nephrology

The integrative -OMICS model is the frame of Systems Biology, a ground that through a bioinformatics approach aims to decode the emergent properties in phenotype

OMICS sciences for Personalized Medicine
The flow of information: from DNA to Human
What are “Omics” sciences?
ü The suffix “ome” comes from “genome” (which was formed after“chromosome”)
ü Omics implies an integration of biology with information science
ü Omics conveys a systems approach
ü Whole profile of a sub-system
ü Significant data acquisition (high-throughput)

Urine proteomics as a liquid kidney biopsy: no more kidney punctures!
Urinary proteome analysis in nephrology. Proteome analysis of a urine samples (typically < 1 mL) gives information on the presence and abundance of more than 1000 peptides and proteins. They can be combined into a high-dimensional classifier (here exemplified for three biomarkers, hence three dimensions), separated into cases and controls.
Graphical depiction of the information obtained from the different approaches. Kidney biopsy can give information on microscopic structural changes in the kidney. In contrast, urine proteome analysis does not give information on morphological changes, but gives information on global protein changes in the kidney, which can be associated with the molecular changes in disease.

“Organisms function in an integrated manner – our senses, our muscles, our metabolism and our mind work together seamlessly,
but biologists have historically studied organisms part by part and celebrated the modern ability to study them molecule by molecule, gene by gene.
“Systems Biology” is devoted to a new science, a critical science of the future that seeks to understand the integration of the pieces to form biological systems.”

“Most medical treatments have been designed for the “average patient.” As a result of this “one-size-fits-all-approach,” treatments can be very successful for some patients but not for others.
This is changing with the emergence of precision medicine, an innovative approach to disease prevention and treatment that takes into account individual differences in people’s genes, environments, and lifestyles.
Precision medicine gives clinicians tools to better understand the complex mechanisms underlying a patient’s health, disease, or condition, and to better predict which treatments will be most effective.”

The Elements of Precision Medicine
“Precision medicine, as envisioned by UCSF, consists of seven overlapping and intersectingelements, including basic, clinical, and social/behavioral discovery, plus the enabling tools ofdigital health, 'omic technologies, and computational health sciences. These elements areintegrated by a knowledge network, creating a sort of "Google maps for health," whichinforms new research and technologies, and leads to more precise and predictive care.”
Precision medicine — describing individualsa | The six dimensions by which individualsmight be described in the precision medicineera are the ‘omic’ data (such as the genomicand metabolomic phenotypes), data fromhealth system registries (for example,electronic medical records, claims, andpharmacy registries), study-participant-generated data, the individual’s motivationsand behaviour, their microbiome, and theirexposome and social determinants. These sixfactors interact with each other, producing adynamic state.
b | The precision participant descriptorintegrates (and displays) the data from the sixdimensions and is the phenotype of theindividual. A dynamic cloud surrounds thephenotypic display to illustrate the changingnature of the phenotype as inputs (left side)vary over time.
c | The electronic health-care system of thefuture will need to curate the data and displayit in a user-friendly fashion to health-careproviders at the point of care.

DIVIDING DIABETESDiabetes exemplifies the problem ofimprecise phenotypes. “There are ahundred ways to be diabetic, involvingdifferent processes in the pancreas, liver,muscle, brain and fat,” says GaryChurchill, a mouse geneticist at theJackson Laboratory in Bar Harbor, Maine.“
“Genetic studies lose statistical power bylooking at a conglomeration ofunderlying causes.”Different genes are responsible forparticular subtypes of diabetes, somixing them together obscures thereasons why people with the samegenetic mutation respond differently tothe same treatment.

The BEAt-DKD project aims to deliver tools and knowledge that will facilitate the development of new,personalised treatments for DKD. Among other things, the project will identify and validate biologicalmarkers (biomarkers) to help researchers track whether a patient’s condition has worsened, andwhether a treatment is working for them. They will also work to identify different sub-groups ofpatients that could respond differently to certain treatments. The results will therefore pave the wayfor the development of effective personalised treatments for DKD.
