NCT ID: NCT06025240 Not yet recruiting - Frailty Clinical Trials

Expanding the Scope of Post-transplant HLA-specific Antibody Detection and Monitoring in Renal Transplant Recipients

HLA-AB
Start date: September 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to assess a new test to detect antibodies which may form following kidney transplant. These antibodies can be difficult to detect as they do not cause any symptoms but can lead to kidney damage. A new blood test will be performed alongside existing antibody tests to see how well the test functions in comparison and to see how well it is able to distinguish between inflammation caused by antibodies and other sorts of inflammation such as a urinary tract infection. The investigators also want to determine whether it is predictable whom will develop antibodies after a transplant and use these results to change the current way patients are monitored for antibodies after receiving a transplant. In addition to this, the investigators want to establish if patients over 60 years of age are relatively protected against immunological events such as rejection compared to patients who are under 60 years of age. The results could potentially lead to using a different immunosuppression regime based on which population age group patients belong to and lowering the risks associated with these drugs.

NCT ID: NCT05951231 Not yet recruiting - Liver Cancer Clinical Trials

Liver Transplantation After ex Vivo Liver Perfusion

EVOLVE
Start date: February 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Today, it is difficult to predict liver function after transplantation and therefore livers where poor function is assumed (marginal livers) become discarded. The study aim is to increase the number of available donor livers, especially for liver cancer patients, by pre-treating and testing marginal ones (extended criteria donor (ECD) livers) liver on a liver perfusion machine. A liver perfusion machine can simulate liver transplantation and enables functional/quality testing before transplantation. The machine will hopefully also make marginal livers more functional by reducing ischemia- & reperfusion injury. A marginal donor liver is perfused ex situ with oxygenated blood from a blood donor on a machine. The liver can be tested here for function using internationally recognized criteria. At the same time, the investigators will carry out analyzes with microdialysis which can give a better picture of organ function and damage. Additionally, various samples of the liver and perfusate will be collected. Liver that achieves criteria for transplantation will be offered to the recipient.

NCT ID: NCT04643665 Completed - Clinical trials for Transplant Dysfunction

Prediction of Pulmonary Graft Dysfunction After Double-lung Transplantation (PGD3-AI Study)

Start date: January 1, 2012
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The thundering evolution of lung transplantation management during the past ten years and primary graft dysfunction (PGD) new definition have led to new predictive factors of PGD. Therefore, we retrospectively analyzed a monocentric database using a machine-learning method, to determine the predictive factors of grade 3 PGD (PGD3), defined as a PaO2/FiO2 ratio < 200 or being under extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) at postoperative day 3. We included all double lung transplantation from 2012 to 2019 and excluded multi-organ transplant, cardiopulmonary bypass, or repeated transplantation during the study period for the same patient. Recipient, donor and intraoperative data were added in a gradient boosting algorithm step-by-step according to standard transplantation stages. Dataset will be split randomly as 80% training set and 20% testing set. Relationship between predictive factors and PGD3 will be represented as ShHapley Additive exPlanation (SHAP) values.

NCT ID: NCT04019353 Completed - Clinical trials for Kidney Transplant; Complications

Cf-DNA Assay During Treatment of Acute Rejection

Start date: June 1, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The objective of this study is to determine whether cell-free DNA (cf-DNA) measurement can be used as a biomarker for successful treatment of an acute rejection (AR) episode after kidney transplantation. A fall in donor cf-DNA level may be a biomarker for successful AR treatment. The goal is to do an exploratory study to determine, in recipients with biopsy-proven AR, whether persistence or elevated levels of donor cf-DNA are associated with ongoing inflammation at the time of exit biopsy; and whether fall in donor cf-DNA level is associated with successful AR treatment. Measurement of cf-DNA has recently been started for kidney transplant recipients. There will be two groups of patients eligible for this study: 1. those who have had sequential measurement of cf-DNA prior to graft dysfunction leading to a biopsy, and 2. those who have not had previous measurement of cf-DNA

NCT ID: NCT03855722 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Transplant Dysfunction

Remote Ischaemic Preconditioning in Transplantation (RIPTRANS)

Start date: March 12, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) is a concept where remotely induced ischemia produces protection against ischemia-reperfusion injury in a remote organ. RIPC has been studied extensively in animal models and heart surgery, but it's benefit in transplantation has been studied less. The primary aim of this study is to find out whether RIPC performed in a donor in donation after brain-death (DBD) could improve delayed graft function rate of kidney transplants.

NCT ID: NCT03602807 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Transplant Dysfunction

Safety and Effect of Low-Energy Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) on the Renal Allograft in Transplant Recipients.

Start date: February 26, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim is to investigate the safety and potential effect of Low-energy Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) on the transplanted kidney. The treatment consist of ESWT two times a week for three weeks, six treatments in total. The hypothesis is that ESWT with improve the renal function, by reducing proteinuria (in a 24-hour urine collection test) and improving renal clearance of 51Cr-EDTA. The safety of ESWT on the renal allograft will be assessed during and after treatments.

NCT ID: NCT03446196 Completed - Clinical trials for Transplant Dysfunction

Hemodynamic Optimization During Single Kidney Transplantation With MostcareUP

Start date: March 10, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

There are currently no clear recommendations on hemodynamic targets during kidney transplantation and most anesthesiologists rely on empiric or obsolete parameters such as CVP. The aim of this study is to investigate hemodynamic management of these patients applying a new generation of advanced monitoring systems such as MOSTCAREUP which can potentially provide a clear overview of the circulatory status beat by beat and to adjust fluid therapy in every single patient or clinical condition.

NCT ID: NCT03314376 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Transplant Dysfunction

Prehabilitation in Patients on a Waiting List for a Transplant

Start date: January 2, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to prove the effects of a individualized prehabilitation program (muscular strength and endurance) in patients in a waiting list for a transplant. The investigators want to see if patients that did a prehabilitation program have better results in the postoperative period.

NCT ID: NCT03123796 Completed - Clinical trials for Transplant Dysfunction

Effects of Proton Pump Inhibitors on Kidney Transplant Recipients

Start date: December 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

Use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) is quite common among renal transplant recipients and reduced kidney functions and hypomagnesemia with the use of PPIs have been reported. In this study, investigation of the effects of PPI use on the outcome of kidney transplant recipients is aimed.
