Trial summary

Molecular monitoring is conducted in blood cells, plasma samples, urine samples and/or tissue from patients after kidney transplantation. In the present study the investigators examine the hypothesis that noninvasive diagnostic molecular monitoring can improve the outcome after transplantation. Read more about this study

About this study

Molecular monitoring is conducted in blood cells, plasma samples, urine samples and/or tissue from patients after kidney transplantation. In the present study the investigators examine the hypothesis that noninvasive diagnostic molecular monitoring can improve the outcome after transplantation.

Routine clinical and laboratory data from serum and urine are evaluated at baseline and after 0-1-2-3-4-12-16-52 weeks and 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10 years after kidney transplantation. Mononuclear cells were obtained from the blood and transcripts of several diagnostic genes (including GATA3 (Trans-acting T-cell-specific transcription factor3), GATA4 (Trans-acting T-cell-specific transcription factor4), GAPDH (Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase), TRPC3 (Transient receptor potential cononical type3), TRPC6 (Transient receptor potential cononical type6), granzyme B, perforin, FOXP3 (Forkhead box P3), ISG15 (Interferon-stimulated gene 15), Mx1 (Interferon-induced GTP-binding protein), MMP3 (Matrix metalloproteinase-3), MMP9 (Matrix metalloproteinase-9), long-non-coding RNA, and others) are quantified using standard quantitative RT-PCR (Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction) techniques. Proteomic analysis were performed in plasma and urine samples. Polymorphisms of selected genes are analyzed using standard techniques. Data are analyzed by descriptive statistics. Differences between groups were analyzed using Mann-Whitney test or Kruskal-Wallis-test and Dunn's multiple comparison post-test, as appropriate. Associations between variables are analyzed using regression analyses. Contingency tables are analyzed using Fisher's exact test.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Transplantation Infection and Kidney Diseases, run by Odense University Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Mar 2023. 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 Denmark. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cellular transcripts (time frame: Day1). 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 28 Mar 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
