There is currently no cure for Alport syndrome, but treatments focus on managing symptoms and slowing the progression of kidney disease. These may include the use of ACE inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers to control blood pressure and reduce proteinuria. In advanced cases, kidney transplantation may be necessary. Ongoing research aims to develop targeted therapies that address the underlying genetic causes.
