Official title:
Use of the Immunomodulating Agent Belumosudil (KD025) After Combined Kidney and Hematopoeitic Stem Cell Transplantation to Induce Transplant Tolerance: A Pilot Study
This study seeks to determine if administration of the drug belumosudil (KD025) will be safe and improve transplant tolerance in subjects undergoing combined Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) single haplotype-matched related or 0-3 antigen (at A, B, C, DR) HLA mismatched unrelated living donor kidney and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
