Other Clinical Trial - Comparison of the Cognitive & Motor Effects of

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective is to compare the effect of treatment with an immediate-release tacrolimus to an extended-release tacrolimus (i.e., Envarsus® XR) immunosuppressive regimen on cognitive and motor function in kidney transplant recipients

Clinical Trial Description

Between four (4) months and 14 months after receiving a kidney transplant and, per standard of care (SOC), having been placed on an immediate-release (IR) tacrolimus immunosuppressant regimen, participants in this study will undergo cognitive and motor function testing and have a blood sample collected (BASELINE). Half of the participants will then be randomly converted to extended-release (XR) tacrolimus (Envarsus® XR) while the other half will remain on IR tacrolimus for the duration of the study. Both the IR and XR groups will repeat the cognitive and motor function testing and have a blood sample collected at 6, 12, and 24 weeks Post-BASELINE. A practice version of the cognitive and motor function tests will be administered no more than 60 days prior to the baseline visit (Pre-BASELINE). Alternate versions of the cognitive and motor tests will be used at each Post-BASELINE testing session to control for possible practice effects. The primary objective is to compare the effect of treatment with an immediate-release tacrolimus to an extended-release tacrolimus (i.e., Envarsus® XR) immunosuppressive regimen on cognitive and motor function in kidney transplant recipients. The secondary objective is to determine the factors that explain inter-individual variability in cognitive response. Pharmacokinetic and demographic factors will be explored. Variability in cognitive response between individuals can be large. A population approach (nonlinear, mixed effects) will be used. Measurement of drug concentration will be the dependent variable. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
