Kidney transplant biopsy study using blood test clues
This study looks at kidney transplant patients who are getting a kidney biopsy for usual clinical reasons. It tests whether special blood test results (from a sample taken as part of the study) can help spot transplant kidney problems earlier or more accurately.
Tampa, FloridaAges Any age - NCT05653232Recruiting
Preventing hepatitis C in kidney transplant recipients using antiviral pills
This study tests antiviral medicine given around the time of a kidney transplant to prevent hepatitis C infection when the donor has hepatitis C. It may help uninfected recipients stay hepatitis C–free after receiving the kidney.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04571203RecruitingPhase 1
Kidney transplant plus blood-cell treatment to help the graft settle
This Phase 1 study tests a treatment plan (including rabbit medicine and a low dose of radiation) meant to help the new kidney “take” and work longer. It also includes a kidney-from-deceased-donor process and checks how safely the treatment works in people with end-stage kidney disease.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT07574398Recruiting
Growth and Development Study After Infant Liver Transplant
This study tracks how babies grow and develop after receiving a liver transplant. Researchers want to understand how transplantation affects children's physical growth and overall development in early infancy.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 1 year - NCT06268769RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two tacrolimus drugs in kidney transplant patients
This study compares two long-acting forms of tacrolimus (Envarsus and Advagraf) to see how the body processes them after a kidney transplant. It aims to find the best way to use these medications to prevent organ rejection.
AachenAges 18 years+ - NCT07219043RecruitingPhase 2
Felzartamab for kidney transplant patients with inflammation
This trial tests a drug called felzartamab to see if it can help people who have a type of kidney inflammation after a transplant, even without donor-specific antibodies. It might offer a new treatment option for those who are not getting better on their own.
Loma Linda, CaliforniaAges 18–74 - NCT07199465RecruitingPhase 1
Letermovir for children after a kidney transplant
This study tests an oral antiviral medication called letermovir to see if it safely prevents CMV (a common virus) in children who have recently had a kidney transplant. It's for children ages typically 4 weeks to about a year post-transplant, with stable kidney function and no current CMV infection.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Up to 17 years - NCT07009548Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
CytoGam for CMV in solid organ transplant recipients
This trial tests whether adding CytoGam (an antibody treatment) to standard antiviral therapy can better treat CMV (a common virus) in people who have received a solid organ transplant. It may help those with high virus levels or a new infection after transplant.
