Trial summary

Kidney graft's fibrosis is correlated with prognostic of kidney's graft, wathever the initial etiology. Actually, that evaluation is based on histologic score of Banff FI/AT (0 to III). It is obtained thanks to punction-biopsy, which is invasive and can lead complications. Read more about this study

About this study

Kidney graft's fibrosis is correlated with prognostic of kidney's graft, wathever the initial etiology. Actually, that evaluation is based on histologic score of Banff FI/AT (0 to III). It is obtained thanks to punction-biopsy, which is invasive and can lead complications. This exam is systematic on M3 of the transplantation.

Tissue's fibrosis is a proliferation of extracellular matrix, leading to an increase of fibrosed tissue rigidity.

Elastography is an ultrasound technique allowing evaluation of tissues' rigidity.

The purpose is the validation of elastograhpy, innovative and non -invasive technique, and more specifically Shear Wave Elastography (SWE). For this, strain ratio (SR) could improve intra-operator variability and estimate fibrosis' degree of kidney's graft.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Kidney Graft, run by University Hospital, Tours at 1 site 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 2 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 23 Apr 2024. 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 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.

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?

measure of shear wave elastography (time frame: 3 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 23 Apr 2024.
