Filter by:Delayed graft function (DGF), delineated by the necessity for dialytic intervention within the initial week post-transplantation, afflicts approximately 20%-50% of recipients. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the potential efficacy of norepinephrine infusion in conjunction with goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) in mitigating the occurrence of DGF among individuals undergoing kidney transplantations. The findings of this investigation have the potential to advance the field of perioperative care in kidney transplantations by providing insights into optimized management strategies.
Evaluate the impact of one dose of belatacept in patients with Delayed Graft Function(DGF) on their time to renal recovery and corresponding rates of patient and graft survival, rejection, and incidence of BK virus(BKV), Epstein-Barr Virus(EBV) and/or cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections.
This is a phase 2 study to evaluate the safety, efficacy and tolerability of ARGX-117 in Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant Recipients at Risk for Delayed Graft Function
Delayed graft function occurs in more than 20% of kidney transplantations. It is an episode of post-ischemic acute kidney injury with long-term consequences on the allograft's function. Based on preclinical data and on a stage 1 clinical trial, the hypothesize is that an acquired defect in NAD+ biosynthesis is instrumental in delayed graft function and that a treatment with high doses of vitamin B3 (nicotinamide) will improve the early renal graft function. Thus, it is planned to recruit 204 kidney allograft recipients immediately before transplantation and randomize them to either placebo or nicotinamide treatment for 3 administrations before transplantation, immediately after it and on the next day. The efficacy of nicotinamide to foster early graft function will be evaluated by comparing the creatinine reduction ratio between the placebo and the nicotinamide treated groups. Serum will be collected before and 2 days after transplantation and urine 2 days and 3 months after transplantation to study the relationship between biological markers of NAD+ biosynthesis and nicotinamide's effect on early kidney graft function.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of this bubble and surface oxygenation and to determine the optimal timing of surface oxygenation (continuous versus intermittent) as alternative for membrane-oxygenated kidneys, originating from DCD donors, during HMP on early graft function in clinical practice.
Avoiding warm ischemia time during vascular anastomosis of the renal allograft is important to prevent damage. The investigators are studying a cooling device that may control the temperature of the renal allograft during transplant surgery; attempting to keep temperatures at or below 5°C for at least 60 minutes. If found effective, this could eliminate warm ischemia and potentially prevent damage to transplanted kidneys.
The investigators hypothesize that preconditioning neurologically deceased organ donors with the calcineurin inhibitor tacrolimus will improve short and long-term transplant survival without causing harm. Organ donors will be randomized to receive either 0.02 mg/kg ideal body weight (IBW) of tacrolimus single infusion or placebo before organ recovery. All corresponding recipients are enrolled and data is collected up to 7 days post-transplant to determine graft function and at 1 year to collect outcomes of vital status, re-transplantation and dialysis. The CINERGY Pilot Trial assesses feasibility for the main trial.
Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) is considered superior to static cold storage (SCS) in kidney transplantation, but the true benefit in the real-world experience remains incompletely understood. The aim of our study is to investigate the real-world impact of HMP on kidney graft function after deceased donor kidney transplant in an HMP cohort propensity score matched with SCS. Propensity score matching will be based on CIT, ECD, gender mismatch, CMV mismatch, re-TX and ET-senior program with a caliper of 0.05
The objectives of this study are to test the preliminary safety and efficacy of a two-day peri-operative course of treprostinil in reducing ischemia-reperfusion injury in adult patients receiving a deceased donor kidney transplantation. Treprostinil, a prostacyclin analog, is expected to facilitate the restoration of blood supply to the revascularized kidney graft via its vasodilatory actions, well characterized protective effects, and longer elimination half-life. These properties and actions of treprostinil make it a strong drug candidate to reduce kidney graft dysfunction during kidney transplantation. An anticipated 20 participants undergoing deceased donor kidney transplant will be hospitalized and intensively monitored during an entire two-day Treatment Phase. An IV infusion using a dedicated central venous line will be used to administer treprostinil commencing approximately 2-3 hours before transplantation of the kidney graft and will continue for approximately 48 hours after completion of the transplant surgery. The primary endpoints include the safety and efficacy of treprostinil, with secondary endpoints including the evaluation of both biochemical and clinical endpoints post-transplantation.
Envarsus XR is an extended release tacrolimus designed to deliver tacrolimus more consistently, thus avoiding large fluctuations of tacrolimus trough levels with Envarsus XR compared to immediate release tacrolimus. It is expected that patients with DGF on Envarsus XR will have more stable tacrolimus levels and facilitate early recover from DGF compared to immediate release tacrolimus.
