Clinical trials: Living Kidney Donor
Chronic Kidney Diseases, Apolipoprotein L1
APOL1 Genetic Testing Program for Living Donors
Living donor (LD) kidney transplantation is the optimal treatment for patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). However, LDs take on a higher risk of future ESKD themselves.

Kidney Transplant
Dosing Regimen of Eculizumab Added to Conventional Treatment in Positive Cross Match Living Donor Kidney Transplant
A strongly positive crossmatch has long been considered an absolute contraindication to kidney transplantation and most patients with anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibody never were able to receive a kidney transplant.

- Eculizumab
