Clinical Trial Summary

In this Phase I/II trial, 10 highly sensitized patients will be entered after informed consent and will receive Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG) at 2 gm/kg + Tocilizumab 8 mg/kg x 5 doses on days 15, 45, 75, 105, 119, 135, and 149. If robust reductions in anti-HLA antibody are seen, patients will progress to kidney transplantation when an "acceptable" crossmatch is achieved with a living donor (LD) or deceased donor (DD). Those receiving transplants will also receive Tocilizumab infusion monthly X7 doses post-transplant. All subjects will have intensive monitoring of Donor Specific Antibodies (DSA), viral PCRs, and routine post-transplant labs. At 6 months post-transplant, those who have retained their transplanted kidney will have a protocol biopsy.
