Prospective, follow-up study of kidney transplant recipients treated with alemtuzumab anti-rejection therapy for severe or glucocorticoid-resistant kidney transplant rejection.
The goal of the Australian Genomics of Chronic Allograft Dysfunction (AUSCAD) study is a single centre (Westmead Hospital), prospective, observational study, which enrols patients at time of kidney (or kidney-transplant) transplant and tracks the post transplant course. The AUSCAD study aims to generate new knowledge and improve outcomes following kidney …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of carfilzomib and belatacept, administered with steroids and maintenance immunosuppression, in kidney transplant recipients with donor-specific antibody (DSA)-associated graft injury. Participants will be followed for 52 weeks after starting investigational therapy, including protocol biopsies at 3 months and …
Chronic active antibody mediated rejection (CAMR) is a therapeutic challenge in transplant recipients that does not respond well to conventional treatments for acute antibody mediated rejection (AMR). Annually, 5000 kidney transplants are lost in the United States due to CAMR. The two-year graft survival rate in CAMR is approximately 20%, …
Identification of a bacterial signature in the blood or stool that may be associated with acute rejection in patients treated with Nulojix during their first year of transplant.
Kidney transplant rejection remains a significant challenge to long-term graft survival. While histological biopsy continues to be the gold standard for diagnosing rejection, noninvasive biomarkers such as donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) have gained traction for their ability to detect allograft injury. However, dd-cfDNA may lack sensitivity in certain clinical scenarios …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how well the shingles vaccine (Shingrix) works and how safe it is in adults with kidney failure who are waiting for a kidney transplant, including those who later receive a transplant. The study also aims to find out whether giving an …
This study aims to clarify whether surgical treatment of persistent hyperparathyroidism after kidney transplantation offers clinically meaningful benefits compared with a conservative treatment strategy. Kidney transplant recipients (\>6 mo after transplantation) with persistent hyperparathyroidism (elevated PTH and either hypercalcemia or hypophosphatemia) will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either …
Context Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a frequent and potentially severe event in solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients. Most of available treatment display adverse effects that limit their use. Therefore, in case of an infection, it is of primary importance to identify the patients at high risk of severe infection and/or …
Renal transplantation is now recognized as the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease. An optimum anesthetic regimen should enhance the function and perfusion of the transplanted kidney. The aim of this study is to assess \& compare the effectiveness of 3 different modalities in this respect: Mannitol, …
