About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Randomized, Open-label, Pilot and Exploratory Study Investigating Safety and Efficacy in OPTIMIZEd Dosing of Advagraf® Kidney Transplantation in Asia.

Primary purpose of this study is to compare renal function between subjects receiving optimized dose Advagraf® over 52 weeks after kidney transplantation and subjects receiving standard dose Advagraf®. Pilot results of safety and efficacy in optimized dose Advagraf® over 52 weeks after kidney transplantation will also be obtained.

What is being measured

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

  1. estimated GFR

    Measured: at Week-52 after transplantation

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. creatinine clearance

    Measured: at Week-52 after transplantation

  2. serum creatinine level

    Measured: at Week-52 after transplantation

  3. Number of graft survival

    Measured: at Week-52 after transplantation

  4. Subject survival

    Measured: at Week-52 after transplantation

  5. number of biopsy-proven acute rejection

    Measured: at Week-52 after transplantation

  6. Composite of graft loss, subject death and biopsy proven acute rejection

    Measured: at Week-52 after transplantation

  7. Time to the first acute rejection

    Measured: up to Week-52 after transplantation

  8. Time to the first steroid-resistant acute rejection

    Measured: up to Week-52 after transplantation

  9. Severity of biopsy proven acute rejection

    Severity is evaluated using Banff '07 Criteria

    Measured: up to Week-52 after transplantation

  10. Safety assessed by the incidence of adverse events, vital signs and lab tests

    Measured: for 52 weeks after transplantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Advagraf® in people with Kidney Transplantation, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 2 sites in 2 countries.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in South Korea, Taiwan. 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?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

estimated GFR (time frame: at Week-52 after transplantation). 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 31 Oct 2024.
