Novel Strategies to Improve Immunomodulation and Non-invasive Clinical Monitoring in VCA

Start date: October 17, 2017
Phase: Early Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to develop a feasible and safe regimen for minimization of immune suppression in recipients of vascularized composite allotransplants (VCA) using a daily dose of recombinant IL-2. In order to achieve this aim, this trial will: 1. Perform VCA in 5 eligible subjects; 2. Administer recombinant IL-2 at a low-dose to promote the expansion and function of regulatory T cells in subjects who received VCA; and 3. Minimize immune suppression to tacrolimus single therapy in subjects who received VCA and recombinant IL-2. This trial will also investigate if it is possible to predict immune rejection in VCA using blood and tissue samples from recipients of VCA. Lastly, this trial will develop non-invasive technologies to monitor for VCA rejection. These technologies will involve magnetic resonance imaging. Multi-contrast ultra-high resolution MR imaging (MRI) with serial direct planimetry will be performed in recipients of VCA.
