About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter, Observational Study Evaluating Serial T-ID Monitoring for the Prevention of CMV Disease and BK Virus-Associated Nephropathy Following Kidney Transplantation

To evaluate the association between time-updated CMV and BK viral loads measured monthly by T-ID and the risk of CMV disease and/or biopsy-proven BK virus-associated nephropathy (BKVAN) during the first 12 months following kidney transplantation, accounting for the net immune environment (TTV viral load) and allograft injury (donor-derived cell-free DNA, dd-cfDNA).

Read the detailed description
  • To characterize time-updated viral detection patterns (e.g., transient vs sustained CMV or BK signals) identified by T-ID prior to development of CMV disease or BKVAN.
  • To evaluate the clinical utility of T-ID monitoring, defined by the frequency and type of clinical management actions taken following test results.
  • To estimate the diagnostic performance of T-ID for clinically meaningful viral infection compared with standard-of-care (PCR) testing and clinical adjudication.
  • To quantify lead time between T-ID detection of viral cfDNA and standard-of-care confirmation or initiation of therapy.
  • To assess the safety of biomarker-informed management, including both rejection following infection-directed management and infection following rejection-directed management.

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary endpoint of the study is the time to first occurrence of either cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease or biopsy-proven BK virus-associated nephropathy (BKVAN) during the first 12 months post-kidney transplantation.

    • CMV disease will be defined according to standard clinical criteria, including CMV syndrome and/or tissue-invasive CMV disease, as determined by the treating clinician and documented in the medical record.
    • BK virus-associated nephropathy (BKVAN) will be defined as biopsy-proven BK virus nephropathy, characterized by histopathologic features consistent with BKVAN (including intranuclear viral inclusions and/or positive SV40 large T-antigen staining), in the setting of documented BK viral replication by standard-of-care testing (e.g., plasma or urine PCR).

    Measured: 12 Months

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Oct 2026. 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

The primary endpoint of the study is the time to first occurrence of either cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease or biopsy-proven BK virus-associated nephropathy (BKVAN) during the first 12 months post-kidney transplantation. (time frame: 12 Months). 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 NCT07393594, which also lists 8 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 Oct 2026.
