Trial summary

This is a single-center, prospective, non-randomized, observational study to evaluate specific proteogenomic biomarker panels for acute rejection (AR) and chronic allograft nephropathy/interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (CAN/IFTA) in blood, urine and kidney tissue (biopsy) in kidney transplant recipients.

  • Ages 18 to 82 years

  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: post-transplant and are undergoing kidney transplant biopsies at the UC Davis transplant center. Ten subjects will be enrolled who are receiving surveillance "protocol biopsies" and 10 subjects who will be receiving "for cause" biopsies in the setting of an elevated serum creatinine or proteinuria. Samples of blood, and formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded biopsy tissue will be sent to Transplant Genomics INC. (TGI) for study purposes. In addition, clinical data will be collected on each subject.. Blood and tissue will be analyzed by TGI using Affymetrix microarrays, and reports will be sent to UC Davis retrospectively. Samples may be batch-shipped and results will not be reported in real time. These results will be compared to both the histological diagnosis, and to the clinical course.

Who may be able to join

None listed.

Who cannot join

  • Need for combined organ transplantation with an extra-renal organ and/or islet cell transplant.
  • Recipients of previous non-renal solid organ and/or islet cell transplantation

About this study

This is a single-center, prospective, non-randomized, observational study to evaluate specific proteogenomic biomarker panels for acute rejection (AR) and chronic allograft nephropathy/interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (CAN/IFTA) in blood, urine and kidney tissue (biopsy) in kidney transplant recipients. Proteogenomic profiles will be routinely monitored over one year after enrollment.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this phase of the study is to allow the clinical site to gain familiarity with patient recruitment, sample and data collection, and interpretation of the proteogenomic biomarker report provided, through retrospective analysis. This phase of the study will provide a platform for the transplant physicians to gain confidence with the format, logistics, and potential use of the biomarker tests on blood and tissue.

Phase 1A. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this phase of the study is to allow the clinical site to gain familiarity with patient recruitment, sample and data collection, and interpretation of the proteogenomic biomarker report provided, through retrospective analysis. This phase of the study will provide a platform for the transplant physicians to gain confidence with the format, logistics, and potential use of the biomarker tests on blood and tissue. B. STUDY DESIGN: Enroll 20 subjects who are post-transplant and are undergoing kidney transplant biopsies at the UC Davis transplant center. Ten subjects will be enrolled who are receiving surveillance "protocol biopsies" and 10 subjects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Biopsy prove acute rejection

    Incidence of acute rejection at the time of any kidney biopsy

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Gene Expression Profiling

    Blood and tissue collection from each subject at the time of each for cause or protocol kidney biopsy

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Delayed Graft Function, run by University of California, Davis 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 0 inclusion and 5 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 25 May 2016. 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.

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?

Biopsy prove acute rejection (time frame: 12 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 25 May 2016.
