Immune registry for BK virus in kidney transplant patients
Part of Immune system & allergy, Infections, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study is creating a registry to learn how the immune system responds to BK virus in people who have recently received a kidney transplant from a deceased donor. Researchers hope this information will help improve treatment for BK virus infections.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You received a kidney transplant from a deceased donor
- You had a kidney-only transplant (no other organs)
- You have been recently diagnosed with BK virus in your blood
- You are not currently pregnant
- You are not a prisoner

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at the type and genetic makeup of BK virus in kidney transplant patients and their donors. It aims to find patients at higher risk for a kidney infection caused by the virus, which could help improve monitoring and treatment.
This study tests a new medicine (AIC468) to see if it can help clear BK virus from the blood of people who have recently had a kidney transplant. Participants will receive either the study drug or a placebo (a dummy pill) to compare outcomes.
This study tests a new treatment using lab-made antibodies to treat BK virus infection. It may help by controlling the virus in adults who already test BK positive.
This trial is testing a new blood test called T-ID that monitors your immune system after a kidney transplant. It may help doctors detect early signs of rejection so they can adjust your treatment before problems start.
This study looks at how the immune system reacts to the BK virus in people who have had a kidney transplant. It may help doctors understand why some patients develop the virus in their blood and how to better manage it.
This study looks at how BK virus affects the body and how your immune system responds after a lung transplant. It may help doctors better understand and manage virus-related complications in transplant recipients.
