With increasing clinical investigation and positive phase 3 trial results for complement targeted therapies, Kavanagh et al. proposed a new treatment pathway in 2025.1 

The authors proposed that based on current evidence, Aspaveli® could be positioned as a first-line therapy—alongside background renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibition— for patients presenting with significant proteinuria at diagnosis.
