Trial summary

This study addresses the clinical problem that reliance on serum creatinine, eGFR or empirical dosing fails to accurately adjust anti-infective doses given rapid renal function shifts within the very early 0-5 days post kidney transplantation. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: 40

Who may be able to join

  • Aged >= 18 years old;
  • Patients receiving kidney transplantation within 0-5 days postoperatively;
  • Clinically planned administration of anti-infective agents for perioperative prophylaxis, empirical therapy or confirmed infection treatment, with an anticipated treatment duration of no less than 5 days;
  • Written informed consent obtained from the subject or legal surrogate;
  • Indwelling urinary catheter retained for at least 48 hours postoperatively to facilitate early urine sample collection;
  • Patients anticipated to be free of dialysis requirement with urine output or early graft functional recovery at enrollment.

Who cannot join

  • Previous kidney transplantation or combined multi-organ transplantation
  • Patients requiring continuous renal replacement therapy in the early postoperative period
  • Severe hepatic dysfunction, defined as Child-Pugh class C, or ALT/AST > 5 times the upper limit of normal accompanied by markedly elevated bilirubin
  • Early postoperative use of ECMO, plasmapheresis or other extracorporeal therapies that substantially alter drug clearance
  • Pregnancy or lactation
  • Subjects judged inappropriate for enrollment by investigators, including those with unfeasible sampling, extremely short expected survival, severe missing clinical data, etc.

About this study

This study addresses the clinical problem that reliance on serum creatinine, eGFR or empirical dosing fails to accurately adjust anti-infective doses given rapid renal function shifts within the very early 0-5 days post kidney transplantation. We will systematically analyze dynamic trajectories of renal biomarkers (serum creatinine, cystatin C, urine output and other renal function indices), quantify their quantitative associations with the exposure, clearance and pharmacodynamic target attainment of anti-infectives. Combined with clinical profiles, medication data, TDM results and perioperative factors, a population PK/PD model will be built for patients in the very early post-transplant stage. We will further validate the value of dynamic renal markers for individualized anti-infective dosing. This research provides evidence for shifting from static renal function-based empirical dosing to precision dosing guided by real-time renal changes and drug exposure, supporting optimized anti-infective dosage, enhanced efficacy and medication safety in early kidney transplant recipients.

What is being measured

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

  1. In vivo exposure of anti-infective agents

    Measured: Before and after each anti-infective administration within 0-5 days after kidney transplantation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Conventional renal function markers (Scr, eGFR)

    Measured: Daily monitoring within 0-5 days post-transplantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Transplant Recipient (Kidney), run by Zhongnan Hospital.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

In vivo exposure of anti-infective agents (time frame: Before and after each anti-infective administration within 0-5 days after kidney transplantation). 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 14 Aug 2026.
