Light therapy study for kidney transplant rejection immune cells
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at whether extra body light treatment (ECP) can change certain immune cells in people with a specific type of kidney transplant rejection caused by antibodies (cABMR). It’s meant to see if ECP could help manage the immune process after transplant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You have health coverage through the French social security system
- Your kidney transplant was done at least 6 months ago
- You were diagnosed with chronic antibody-mediated rejection (cABMR) by a recent kidney biopsy within 3 months
- Your kidney filtering function is above 30 mL/min/1.73 m²
- You do not have an active infection or hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or HIV

This trial tests if giving you back specially grown immune cells (called Tregs) made from your own blood can help your body accept a new kidney from a living donor with less rejection. It is for people who are ready for a first kidney transplant.
This study looks at how the body’s immune system responds when a kidney transplant shows signs of rejection, using a planned kidney biopsy. It may help doctors better understand what drives rejection and how to improve care in the future.
This study tests whether a special immune-resetting treatment can help patients who have developed too many antibodies against donor kidneys get access to a compatible kidney transplant. The treatment uses chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation to 'reset' your immune system so it stops rejecting potential donor kidneys.
This study looks at how well extracorporeal photopheresis (a treatment that filters and treats your blood with light) works for kidney transplant patients who have antibody-mediated rejection (when your immune system attacks the new kidney). It may help doctors understand if this treatment can stop the rejection.
This trial looks at how “extracorporeal photochemotherapy” (a light-based treatment done outside the body) works at the cellular level. It may help improve treatment and control for people dealing with immune reactions after transplant or certain blood/skin conditions.
This trial tests whether a therapy called extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) can stop early, silent rejection in lung transplant patients. It is for people who have developed donor-specific antibodies but still have normal lung function.
