Additional remarks Ruim 10% (1,7 miljoen mensen) van de Nederlandse bevolking heeft chronische nierschade. 40% (680.000 mensen) daarvan weet dat niet. Klachten ontstaan vaak pas als de nierfunctie nog maar 30% is. Hiervan heeft mogelijk 1%-2% metabole acidose. Het gaat hier dus mogelijk om meer dan 10.000 patiënten. Het is momenteel onduidelijk of TRC101 behandeling van deze groep geheel gaat vervangen maar dat risico is wel reëel.
