[What's New in the CKD-BMD Therapy?].

The important advances in scientific knowledge have led to a notable enrichment of therapeutic offers in the field of CKD-MBD, which have allowed better control of the related biochemical parameters compared to the past. However, this has not corresponded to a tangible improvement in the clinical outcomes, both bone and cardiovascular, associated with CKD-MBD, nor has there been a significant drop in the number of pills that nephropathic patients must take, to keep the parameters controlled biochemicals, with the therapeutic cost of these interventions remaining high. All these unsatisfied needs continue to stimulate research to find new solutions that can improve one or more of these objectives not yet achieved. In this review of the most recent literature, we have tried to summarize what has been recently proposed in the therapeutic field of CKD-MBD, underlining the possible advantages of new drugs compared to already available therapies, with particular attention to unmet needs. We have also revisited the recent acquisitions relating to drugs that have already been in use for some time, reporting the most recent evidence that could change the approach to their use.
