About this study

Official title: Prospective, Randomized Trial of Belatacept Switch in Renal Transplant Recipients With Delayed Graft Function

Currently looking for individuals that have received a kidney transplant, are experiencing delayed graft function (DGF), and meet the criteria for study participation.

Read the detailed description

Patients who undergo kidney transplantation require long term immunosuppressive therapy (therapy that reduces your body's ability to respond to anything foreign) to prevent damage to the graft, and some experience delayed graft function (DGF, a condition in which the transplanted kidney does not function properly) after transplantation. This study is being conducted to determine if kidney transplant recipients with delayed graft function (DGF) who are switched to the immunosuppressive regimen of belatacept with mycophenolate and steroid will recover from delayed graft function (DGF) in less time (which could potentially lower the risk of rejection associated with delayed graft function) than kidney transplant recipients with delayed graft function (DGF) who remain on the current standard immunosuppressive regimen (standard of care).

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to recover from Delayed Graft Function

    For renal transplant recipients with DGF, time (days) to recover from DGF as defined as: date of enrollment (day 1) until calculated MDRD IV eGFR at least 21 ml/min: at least 2 days after last dialysis if meeting dialysis criteria for enrollment (end date) and no requirement for dialysis at least 2 weeks, with a stable or improving MDRD calculated eGFR (assessed weekly for at least three weeks).

    Measured: 2 weeks

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Percent patients reaching recovery (defined above) by 14 days and 3 months.

    Percent patients reaching recovery (defined above) by 14 days and 3 months.

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

  2. Hospital length of stay (days) from date of transplant to discharge

    by monitoring patient while inpatient

    Measured: up to 7 days

  3. Number of dialysis treatments

    by monitoring patients health at each visit, and notification of hospitalizations/AE's

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

  4. Number of biopsies

    medical record review of clinically indicated renal allograft biopsies performed within the followup 12 month period

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

  5. Biopsy proven acute rejection events

    by blood draws, and by monitoring patients health at each visit, and notification of hospitalizations/AE's

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

  6. Patient and graft survival

    by monitoring patients health at each visit, and notification of hospitalizations/AE's

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

  7. Number of hospital readmissions

    by monitoring patients health at each visit, and notification of hospitalizations/AE's

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

  8. Detection of DSA (Luminex)

    by blood draw

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

  9. Incidence and type of infection

    by monitoring patients health at each visit, and notification of hospitalizations/AE's

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

  10. Measured or estimated creatinine clearance.

    by blood draw

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

  11. Banff score of rejection episodes and immune suppression treatment/management of rejection

    by monitoring patients health at each visit, and notification of hospitalizations/AE's

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

  12. Immune suppression drug levels (everolimus or sirolimus, cyclosporine, or mycophenolate as clinically monitored).

    by blood draw, and by monitoring patients health at each visit, and notification of hospitalizations/AE's

    Measured: Assessed at 3, 6, 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Belatacept and Everolimus in people with Delayed Graft Function, run by Ohio State University at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 12 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 23 Sep 2021. 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 United States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Drug unavailability due to a manufacturing transition.). 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?

Time to recover from Delayed Graft Function (time frame: 2 weeks). 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 23 Sep 2021.
