View clinical trials related to Immunosuppression.
Filter by:Medical data and biological samples obtained from transplant patients are collected and managed across Germany with the help of the DZIF Transplant Cohort. The data and samples form the basis of scientific studies which investigate the connections between numerous factors influencing an organ's susceptibility to infection and organ function.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the bioavailability and practicability of two different formulations of tacrolimus in kidney transplant recipients. The main objective is to demonstrate that Envarsus® (test drug) has superior (higher) oral bioavailability compared with Advagraf™ (comparator drug) at 12 weeks after kidney transplantation. The trial also aims to compare the practicability (handling) of the two drugs using a series of pharmacokinetic parameters and to explore the relationship between drug bioavailability and long-term clinical outcomes, with a special focus on dose-dependent adverse reactions, measured until 3 years post-transplantation. The trial incorporates a pharmacokinetic sub-study designed to profile the peak tacrolimus blood concentration up to 6 hours after drug intake on the day of the 12-week study visit.
To determine whether providing a recombinant booster COVID-19 vaccine improves sustained humoral and cell-mediated immunogenicity against SARS-CoV-2 in immunosuppressed patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and/or solid organ transplant recipients. 120 participants will be enrolled and can expect to be on study for 6 months.
To seek an association between Torque Teno Virus DNA titres resulting from under or over-immunosuppression in a kidney allograft recipient, Graft rejection, both cell-mediated rejection and antibody-mediated rejection, donor-specific antibodies (DSA), the incidence of BK viraemia and BK nephropathy, CMV infection or diseases and PCP infection and the number of circulating NK, B and T lymphocyte subtypes.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about dynamic changes of Torquetenovirus (TTV) load in Chinese renal transplant recipients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is there correlation between TTV load and rejection? - Is there correlation between TTV load and infection? - Can changes in the TTV load of kidney transplant recipients predict rejection or infection? Participants will: - receive 13 follow-up visits within 1 year after kidney transplantation - provide 2 ml of whole blood for TTV load testing and other related testing at each follow-up - provide 10 ml of whole blood for dd-cfDNA testing at four follow-ups (1, 3, 6 and 12 months after transplantation) - provide 1 ml of serum for donor-specific antibody testing at three follow-ups (1, 6 and 12 months after transplantation)
In order to detect the immunosuppression status of COVID-19 patients, this study collected blood samples of COVID-19 patients on the 10th, 20th and 30th days after the onset of symptoms, and detected the proinflammatory, anti-inflammatory factors，immunosuppressive marker，immune cells in the blood samples to evaluate the immunosuppression status of COVID-19 patients.
The investigators will examine whether a combination of at-home nucleic acid amplification tests, on-demand telemedicine, and delivery of prescriptions such as Paxlovid quickly after testing positive for COVID-19, can reduce severe outcomes and hospitalization of immunocompromised patients and those who are 65 years and older. They will also analyze whether these efforts lower the cost of care compared to standard of care.
The goal of this observational study is to better understand what happens to circulating blood after a patient experiences severe trauma injury. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is severe human trauma associated with specific patterns of development in the hematopoietic stem cells of these patients? and Does the initial severe trauma injury create immunosuppression and increase risk of in-hospital sepsis? Participants in study will give blood samples and a waste sample of bone marrow at time of operative repair of traumatic orthopedic injuries, supply medical information and participate in surveys and assessments during recovery from their injury(ies). Researchers will compare severe trauma injury patients to elective hip repair patients to see if immunosuppression and specific development patterns occur in the trauma patient versus the otherwise healthy hip surgery patient.
To study the efficacy and safety of pitavastatin and PCSK9 inhibitors in liver transplant patients on ongoing immunosuppressive therapy.
This phase 0 trial tests the feasibility, functionality, and sustainability of vascularized composite bladder allograft transplantation in treating patients with terminal bladder pathology. A vascularized bladder allograft transplantation may provide a more durable and better-tolerated alternative to standard urinary diversion, which employs bowel. A robotic surgical approach will be employed.
