Trial summary

The aim of the study is to explore the possibility to identify, at an early stage after a renal graft and from blood samples collected within first months after graft, a predictive transcriptional profile of long term occurence of graft operational tolerance or chronic rejection.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of an Early Screening Test of Chronic Rejection and of Operational Tolerance by MicroArray in Renal Graft.

The aim of the study is to explore the possibility to identify, at an early stage after a renal graft and from blood samples collected within first months after graft, a predictive transcriptional profile of long term occurence of graft operational tolerance or chronic rejection.

The aim of the study is to determine an early transcriptional profile of chronic rejection in the transcriptome of mononuclear blood cells. Validation and predictivity of transcriptional analysis will be based on graft function and graft histology one year after transplantation.The other aim is to determine an early transcriptional profile of operational tolerance in the same patients using a DNA chip dedicated including two lists of genes discriminating tolerant patients who are stopped immunosuppressant treatment for over a year.

To allow statistical analysis of 100 patients followed one year after graft, patients not assessable at one year due to early termination of study will be replaced.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • DNA chipBiological

    One biopsy is realized before graft, another biopsy is realized one year after graft and a blood sample is collected 3 months after graft to realize DNA chip. Blood samples are also collected at day 0, day 1, month 3, month 6 and month 12 to analyze biochemistry, proteinuria, haematology, creatinine clearance and immunology at day 0, month 3 and month 12.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Transcriptional profile (exhaustive DNAchip) on the blood at 3 months post transplantation.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlation of the transcriptional profile at 3 months after transplantation with histological features of the kidney graft at one year of follow-up.

    Measured: One year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing DNA chip in people with First Cadaveric Renal Graft, run by Nantes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Sep 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The number of included patients is sufficient.). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Transcriptional profile (exhaustive DNAchip) on the blood at 3 months post transplantation. (time frame: 3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Sep 2013.
