GFR — One of the most important markers for identifying impaired renal function

  • Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common consequence of many medical conditions, and it's prevalence is rising.​​​​
  • Hypertension and diabetes mellitus — two main CKD causes. 
  • Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) is one of the most common tests used, and included in all standard blood panels assessing kidney function. 

Currently, GFR is based on an estimation using clinical data and blood-based biomarkers, like creatinine or cystatin C. GFR can either be measured (mGFR) by tracer methods or estimated (eGFR).

mGFR methods are elaborate and time-consuming, and eGFR lacks accuracy in a number of common clinical situations. Because of this, clinical decision-making is difficult, especially early when intervention may help slow progression to end-stage renal disease.

GFR testing. |With <i>AXINON<sup>&reg;</sup> GFR (NMR)</i>.

Advanced. Automated. Affordable.

numares developed a novel multi-parametric serum test called AXINON®GFR(NMR) to assess kidney function and significantly improve on the current standard of serum creatinine-based estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR).

Our NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance)-based early GFR data determination is more accurate than creatinine-based, conventional eGFR and comparable to tracer-based mGFR methods.

Using the metabolomics approach and numares’ Magnetic Group Signaling (MGS®) technology, evaluating NMR-based GFR biomarkers yields defined metabolite constellations displaying impaired GFR.

AXINON® GFR(NMR) can improve patient care by offering an accurate, easy way to assess renal function, monitor disease progression and track therapies with nephrotoxic drugs.
