Abstract: Purpose: This cross-sectional survey study quantified the humanistic burden of immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), in terms of physical and mental health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and work productivity, among adults with primary IgAN and their care-partners. Methods: HRQoL was assessed (01/31/22 − 05/31/23) with validated tools including the KDQoL-36 (with SF-12), GAD-7 (anxiety), PHQ-9 (depression), and WPAI: SHP (work productivity). Participant characteristics and total/domain scores were summarized; selected outcomes were compared to an external, kidney disease-free cohort. Results: 117 adults with IgAN and their care-partner pairs, and one adult without a care-partner, were included. The mean ages of patients and care-partners were 38.0 (SD: 8.6) and 40.2 (11.8) years, respectively; 55.9% and 43.6% were female. Mean physical and mental SF-12 scores for patients were 46.7 (SD: 8.0) and 41.9 (9.2), respectively, and 50.7 (7.3) and 43.7 (10.24) for care-partners. Both SF-12 components for patients, and the mental component for care-givers, were significantly worse compared to the US general population. Among patients, 27.1% had moderate/severe anxiety and 49.2% reported at least moderate depression. Compared to external controls, patients experienced significantly higher severity of anxiety (6.6 vs. 5.4) and depression (8.1 vs. 6.6; both p < 0.0001). Among care-partners, 13.7% experienced moderate anxiety and 37.8% experienced moderate/moderately-severe depression. Among employed individuals, both groups reported IgAN-related absenteeism (8.8–9.4%), presenteeism (25.1–25.9%), and overall work impairment (30.4–30.5%). Conclusion: US adults with IgAN and their care partners experience impairments to mental and physical HRQoL and heightened levels of depression and anxiety, underscoring the need for effective IgAN therapies and care-partner support.
