Kidney Transplantation (Status Post) Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Phase 2 Pilot, Multicenter, Single Arm Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of GSK1070806 Plus Standard of Care for the Prevention of Delayed Graft Function in Adult Subjects After Renal Transplantation
This is a phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of GSK1070806 in subjects undergoing renal transplantation. GSK1070806 is an anti-interleukin 18 (IL18) monoclonal antibody, which binds to IL-18 and inhibits signaling through the IL-18 receptor. Recipients of donor kidneys, retrieved after circulatory death of the donor, will be administered a single intravenous infusion of GSK1070806 to test whether inhibition of IL-18 can reduce the rate of Delayed Graft Function (DGF) and graft rejection. Subjects will be followed for 12 months post dose/transplant. Up to 40 adult subjects will be enrolled in this study.
