About this study

Official title: Multicentre, Prospective, Randomized, Open-label Study Comparing the Efficacy and Safety of CellCept With Delayed Introduction of Sirolimus and Discontinuation of Cyclosporine, With Those of Standard Immunosuppression Comprising CellCept and Long-term Continuation of Cyclosporine in Renal Transplant Recipients Receiving Induction by Zenapax and Treated With Corticosteroids for 8 Months

This multicentre, prospective, randomized, open-label study will compare the safety and efficacy of mycophenolate mofetil with delayed introduction of sirolimus and discontinuation of cyclosporine, with those of mycophenolate mofetil and long term continuation of cyclosporine in renal transplant recipients receiving daclizumab (Zenapax) as induction treatment and followed by 8 month treatment with corticosteroids. The anticipated time on study treatment is 12 months. Participants who will complete the initial 12-month study and who will provide written informed consent will be eligible to participate in a 60-month follow-up phase.

Being tested
Cyclosporine, Daclizumab, Mycophenoate Mofetil, Prednisolone, Sirolimus

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CyclosporineDrug

    Also called Neoral

    Cyclosporine tablets orally once daily at dose level adapted to maintain concentration at 2 hours after administration (C2): 1000-1500 nanogram per milliliter (ng/mL) during Day 0 to Week 4, and 800-1200 ng/mL during Week 4 to Week 52. For Mycophenoate Mofetil + Sirolimus treatment arm, at Week 12, dose of cyclosporine will be reduced by 50% for 3 days, followed by 1/4 of the dose for 3 days, and then cyclosporine will be stopped.

  • DaclizumabDrug

    Also called Zenapax

    Daclizumab 2 milligram (mg) per kilogram (kg) will be administered as intravenous infusion over 15 minute on Day 0 (during the 24 hours preceding renal transplantation) and at a dose of 1 mg/kg on Day14.

  • Mycophenoate MofetilDrug

    Also called CellCept

    Mycophenoate mofetil 1 gram (g) (2*500mg tablets or 4*250mg capsules) will be given twice daily (daily dose of 2 g) orally for 12 months.

  • PrednisoloneDrug

    Also called Solupred

    Prednisolone 250 mg intravenously on Day 0, followed by 0.5 mg/kg orally daily (maximum 40 mg daily) from Day 1 to Day 7, then 0.25 mg/kg orally daily (maximum 20 mg daily), then dose will be stepwise reduced by 2.5 mg per week to reach to a dose level of 10 mg daily and continued up to 6 months and finally drug will be discontinued after 8 months.

  • SirolimusDrug

    Also called Rapamycin

    Sirolimus tablets will be given orally from week 12 to week 52, starting with loading dose of 10 mg daily for 2 days followed by 6 mg daily to adapt to trough concentrations of 8-15 ng/mL from week 12 to week 39, and 5-10 ng/mL from week 39 to week 52.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Cyclosporine, Daclizumab and Mycophenoate Mofetil in people with Renal Transplantation, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 17 sites in France.

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 10 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 19 Feb 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in France. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

Creatinine Clearance Calculated and Corrected According to Cockcroft Gault at Month 60 (time frame: 60 months). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Feb 2016.
