About this study

Official title: IgG Antibodies After SARS-CoV-2 mRNA Vaccine in Kidney Transplantation

The aim of this study is to assess humoral immune response in kidney transplant recipients after SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine.

Read the detailed description

TASMANIA is a single-center prospective observational study with 1000 kidney transplant recipients from Institute for Clinical and Experimental Medicine (IKEM), Prague. The primary objective of the study is to assess humoral immune response to SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines in SARS-CoV-2-naive kidney transplant recipients using immunochemiluminescent assay. As comparator several cohorts will be evaluated:

  1. kidney transplant recipients with previous SARS-CoV-2 exposition verified by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)
  2. kidney transplant recipients vaccinated on waiting list (a) SARS-CoV-2 naive (b) SARS-CoV-2 previously exposed

The secondary objective is to determine clinical variables affecting antibody levels. SARS-CoV-2 anti S1/2 antibodies will be tested ≥ 15 days after the second dose of mRNA vaccines and in 3 months after the first blood sampling.

In subanalysis 50 kidney transplant recipients will be examined for a cell-mediated immune response after SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine Enzyme Linked using Immuno Spot (ELISPOT) assay.

What is being measured

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

  1. Humoral immune response in kidney transplant recipients following anti-SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccination.

    anti-spike SARS-CoV-2 IgG measured ≥15 days after vaccination

    Measured: 15 days-90 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Humoral immune response in kidney transplant recipients following anti-SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccination.

    anti-spike SARS-CoV-2 IgG measured 3 ≥ months after the first blood sampling

    Measured: 3 months - 6 months

  2. Cellular immune response in kidney transplant recipients following anti-SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccination.

    Cellular immunity measured by ELISPOT assay in subgroup of 50 patients

    Measured: 15 - 90 days

  3. Graft function after vaccination

    Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)

    Measured: 15 days-90 days

  4. Clinical variables affecting antibody levels

    Sex, previous SARS-CoV-2 infection, Age, Retransplantation, BMI, time from transplant, eGFR, diabetes mellitus, use of imunosuppression (tacrolimus, cyclosporine A, CNI-free regimen, mycophenolate mofetil, depleting therapy).

    Measured: 15 days-90 days

  5. The impact of frailty syndrom on humoral response in older kidney recipients (70+ years of age) following anti-SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination

    Fried frailty score

    Measured: 15 days-90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Kidney Transplantation, run by Institute for Clinical and Experimental Medicine at 1 site in Czechia.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 6 Mar 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 Czechia. 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?

Humoral immune response in kidney transplant recipients following anti-SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccination. (time frame: 15 days-90 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04832841, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 6 Mar 2024.
