A 64-year-old man develops chronic renal failure. He has an extensive medical history, and also complains of increasingly poor vision in his right eye. After a kidney biopsy is taken (see image), his physician immediately starts him on a new medication. What pharmacologic treatment has been shown to most effectively delay the progression of the pathology shown in this photomicrograph?
