Filter by:An open label, non-randomized pilot study in kidney transplant recipients who received a completed primary series and bivalent booster of mRNA based COVID-19 vaccine and have =<2500 U/mL SARS-CoV-2 S antibody concentration using the Roche Elecsys(R) anti-RBD assay. Up to 80 participants will be enrolled in this study. Eligible participants will receive a dose of the Sanofi-GSK monovalent (B.1.351) CoV2 preS dTM-AS03 COVID-19 vaccine candidate.. The primary objective is to determine whether a booster dose of the Sanofi-GSK monovalent (B.1.351) CoV2 preS dTM-AS03 COVID-19 vaccine will elicit an increased SARS-CoV-2 antibody response in participants who have failed to maintain an antibody titer >2500 U/mL (using the Roche Elecsys(R) anti-RBD assay) to 2 or more doses of mRNA based COVID-19 vaccine
For chronic kidney disease (CKD), there is a lack of unique and powerful platform for patient engagement, research studies and public health advocacy work. The National kidney Foundation (NKF) launched the first nationwide registry for people at all stages and types of CKD, including people on dialysis and kidney transplant recipients, called the NKF Patient Network (NKFPatientNetwork.org). The NKF Patient Network is a non-interventional research study which means participants will not have to take medications or do any additional tests to participate. They are simply asked to share some personal and health information, and their experiences with their disease through a secure portal. The Network also collaborates with health systems to obtain additional electronic health records (EHR) data. This unique combination of data collected will address the gap of individualized educational resources and will enhance clinical research, clinical care, and health policy decisions to be centered on the patient. The NKF Patient Network is all online and can be accessed any time of day at NKFPatientNetwork.org. Participation is voluntary and free.
Prospective observational trial to assess immunological safety (anti-HLA antibodies, donor-derived cell-free DNA) and immunological effectiveness (anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG) of the first booster dose of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines in kidney transplant recipients at least one year from transplantation.
Randomized controlled trial of a curriculum intervention teaching patients to eat a whole-food plant-based dietary pattern versus standard of care in kidney transplant recipients within the first few months of transplant
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of physical activity program according to motivational interviewing based on the Transtheoretical Model on cardiovascular risk factors, physical activity level, physical activity behavior, physical activity barriers and gait parameters in kidney transplant recipients.
The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of genetic mutations that increase the risk of cancer and other medically actionable diseases in kidney transplant patients and to assess the impact of genetic testing on subsequent surveillance for cancer.
This study is an analytical observational retrospective cohort study. It is a single-center study conducted in the Nancy University Hospital. End stage renal disease is the ultimate stage of the chronic kidney disease. Patients need extra-renal replacement techniques. Kidney transplantation is the most effective option for survival, quality of life and costs. Then long-term immunosuppressive agents are required to prevent allograft rejection and improve graft survival. The number of patients who return in dialysis after graft loss is increasing and accounts for 10% of incident dialysis patients and 14% of patients on the kidney transplant waiting list registered in 2019. This population may develop complications induced by end-stage renal disease and adverse events related to prolonged exposure to immunosuppressive agents. There are currently no formal guidelines on the management of immunosuppressive agents when patients return to dialysis. Reduction or discontinuation of therapy appears to decrease cardiovascular, infectious, and neoplastic complications. However, continuing these treatments may limit anti-HLA sensitization which may access to retransplantation. Only a few low-powered cohort studies have evaluated the impact of the management of immunosuppressive therapy on the HLA-sensitization. The hypothesis of our study is that the continuation of immunosuppressive agents when patients return in dialysis may limit anti-HLA sensitization. Therefore, access to retransplantation could be facilitated. The main objective is to compare the evolution of anti-HLA sensitization according to the management of immunosuppressive treatment after the return in dialysis (maintenance, reduction, cessation). Secondary objectives are time to re-transplantation for patients on the transplant waiting list, survival of the new graft, patient survival, and dialysis complications (cardiovascular, infectious and neoplastic complications).
The purpose of this research is to see if a dose of the Janssen Ad26.CoV2.S vaccine effects the immune protection in individuals who have had a kidney transplant and two or three doses of mRNA vaccine (Pfizer and/or Moderna vaccines).
The purpose of the study is to test the feasibility mHealth dietary app + health coaching for improving primary outcomes (recruitment, retention, and adherence) and secondary outcomes (perceived stress [ Perceived Stress Scale], exercise self-efficacy[Exercise Self-efficacy Scale], vegetable intake [Fruit, Vegetables, and Fiber Screen] fat intake [Lose-it Premium database], carbohydrate intake [Lose-it Premium database], weight, [Wi-Fi weight scale using the Lose-it Premium database], and blood pressure [Wi-Fi blood pressure cuff using the Lose-it Premium database].
International, multicentre, randomized 1:1 controlled trial to prove the clinical and medico economic benefits of the medical device Predigraft, by showing that the use of Predigraft could improve patient's follow-up.
