About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Safety of Two Anti-T-lymphocyte Immune Globulin (ATG-F) Induction Regimens in de Novo Kidney Transplant Patients - a Multicenter, Randomized, Parallel Group Study

To investigate the efficacy and safety of ATG-F induction regimen using a single dose of ATG-F compared with a five-day dose regimen of ATG-F in anew kidney transplant recipients.

Read the detailed description

To investigate the efficacy and safety of ATG-F induction regimen using a single dose of ATG-F compared with a five-day dose regimen of ATG-F in de novo kidney transplant recipients. The primary analysis of this study is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of the two regimens with regard to efficacy, defined as failure rate.

The secondary objective of the study is the assessment of safety and further efficacy parameters in terms of incidence of acute rejections, graft/patient survival, DGF(delayed graft function) and renal function

What is being measured

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

  1. efficacy failure

    Efficacy failure is defined as any of the following events:

    • patient's death,
    • graft loss,
    • acute rejection,
    • and/or lost to follow-up.

    Measured: 12 months post-transplant

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Incidence of acute rejection

    Measured: 6 and 12 months

  2. Incidence of DGF

    DGF = delayed graft function

    Measured: 6 and 12 months

  3. Incidence of patient survival

    Measured: 6 and 12 months

  4. Incidence of graft survival

    Measured: 6 and 12 months

  5. Renal function: serum creatinine/eGFR

    Measured: 1, 3, 6 and 12 months

  6. incidence and severity of AEs

    Measured: 6 months and 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing ATG-F in people with De Novo Kidney Transplant Patients, run by Astellas Pharma Inc at 14 sites in China.

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 14 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 1 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in China. 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?

efficacy failure (time frame: 12 months post-transplant). 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 1 Nov 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
