Kidney Transplant clinical trials at UCSF
17 in progress, 12 open to eligible people

  • A Cohort Study of Operationally Tolerant Allograft Recipients

    open to all eligible people

    Antirejection medicines, also known as immunosuppressive drugs, are prescribed to organ transplant recipients to prevent their bodies from rejecting the new organ. Some organ transplant recipients can stop taking anti-rejection medicines without rejecting their transplanted organ (this is called 'tolerance'). The purpose of this study will collect samples and data from 'tolerant' liver or kidney transplant recipients in order to find out: The purpose of this study is to collect samples and data in order to find out: - How long liver or kidney transplant recipients can remain tolerant; - What happens in the tolerant recipient's body over time; and - If there are patterns in the body that are linked to tolerance.

  • A Study of CMV Vaccine (HB-101) in Kidney Transplant Patients

    open to eligible people ages 18-99

    HB-101 is a bivalent recombinant vaccine against human CMV infection. This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 2 study to assess the safety, reactogenicity, immunogenicity, and efficacy of HB-101 in CMV-Seronegative patients receiving a kidney transplant from a CMV-Seropositive living donor and CMV-Seropositive patients.Patients enrolled should have a living donor kidney transplantation ideally planned between two to four months after the first injection of study drug (HB-101 or placebo).

  • Cellular Immunotherapy in Recipients of HLA-matched, Living Donor Kidney Transplants

    open to eligible people ages 18-70

  • Effects of Inhibiting Early Inflammation in Kidney Transplant Patients

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    During transplant surgery, there is a period of time when a donated kidney is removed from a donor's body and stored until the time of the transplant surgery. The storage procedure results in buildup of various proteins within the kidney that can injure the donated kidney after it is transplanted. One of these proteins is tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha). The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether taking infliximab, which blocks tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), just prior to transplant surgery, along with usual transplant medicines will protect the donated kidney from damage caused by TNF-alpha and help keep the transplanted kidney healthy for a longer period of time.

  • HOPE in Action Prospective Multicenter, Clinical Trial of Deceased HIVD+ Kidney Transplants for HIV+ Recipients

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

  • Impact of CCR5 Blockade in HIV+ Kidney Transplant Recipients

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    Maraviroc (MVC) is a type of HIV medicine called a CCR5 inhibitor. This study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of MVC in HIV-infected adults receiving a kidney transplant.

  • Letermovir Versus Valganciclovir to Prevent Human Cytomegalovirus Disease in Kidney Transplant Recipients (MK-8228-002)

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of letermovir (LET) versus valganciclovir (VGCV) in preventing CMV disease in adult kidney transplant recipients. The primary hypotheses are that LET is non-inferior to VGCV; and if non-inferiority is demonstrated, that LET is superior to VGCV, in preventing CMV disease through 52 weeks post-transplant.

  • Preventive Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccine Trial in Kidney Transplant Recipients

    open to eligible people ages 18-49

    This trial studies whether the nonavalent human papillomavirus vaccine given to adults prior to kidney transplantation can help the body build and maintain an effective immune response during the post-transplant period when they receive immunosuppressive drugs to prevent transplant rejection. This study will help inform our scientific understanding about vaccine-induced immune responses among immunosuppressed individuals.

  • Study of Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic (PK) and Pharmacodynamic (PD) of an Anti-CD40 Monoclonal Antibody, CFZ533, in Kidney Transplant Recipients

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of three CFZ533 dose regimens in kidney transplant recipients. This study will allow assessment of the ability of CFZ533 to replace Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) in terms of anti-rejection efficacy, while providing better renal function with a better safety and tolerability profile. Results of this study will be used to inform the CFZ533 dose and regimen selection for investigation in later phases of clinical development.

  • Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Bleselumab in Preventing the Recurrence of Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis in de Novo Kidney Transplant Recipients

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of the bleselumab regimen (basiliximab induction, tacrolimus, steroids and bleselumab) compared with the Standard of Care (SOC) regimen (basiliximab induction, tacrolimus, steroids and mycophenolate mofetil [MMF]) in the prevention of recurrent Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (rFSGS) defined as nephrotic range proteinuria with protein-creatinine ratio (≥ 3.0 g/g) through 3 months post-transplant. Death, graft loss or lost to follow-up will be imputed as rFSGS.

  • Treg Modulation With CD28 and IL-6 Receptor Antagonists

    open to eligible people ages 18-70

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of using lulizumab pegol with tocilizumab, belatacept, and everolimus in kidney transplant recipients.

  • APOL1 Long-term Kidney Transplantation Outcomes Network (APOLLO)

    Sorry, not currently recruiting here

    The APOLLO study is being done in an attempt to improve outcomes after kidney transplantation and to improve the safety of living kidney donation based upon variation in the apolipoprotein L1 gene (APOL1). Genes control what is inherited from a family, such as eye color or blood type. Variation in APOL1 can cause kidney disease. African Americans, Afro-Caribbeans, Hispanic Blacks, and Africans are more likely to have the APOL1 gene variants that cause kidney disease. APOLLO will test DNA from kidney donors and recipients of kidney transplants for APOL1 to determine effects on kidney transplant-related outcomes.

  • Evaluation of Patient Outcomes From the Kidney Allograft Outcomes AlloSure Registry

    Sorry, not currently recruiting here

    This is an observational study to evaluate safety and efficacy outcomes in renal transplant recipients in whom post-transplant care is managed using AlloSure®. AlloSure® is a non-invasive test to measure donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA). The AlloSure test is intended to assess the probability of allograft rejection in kidney transplant recipients with clinical suspicion of rejection and to inform clinical decision-making regarding the necessity of renal biopsy in such patients at least 2 weeks post-transplant in conjunction with standard clinical assessment. Amendment 1 (A1): Is an observational study to develop and validate the clinical use of KidneyCare®.

  • Prevention of De Novo HCV With Antiviral HCV Therapy Post-Liver and Post-Kidney Transplant

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    In this study, subjects that do not have Hepatitis C virus (HCV) will be transplanted with livers or kidneys from donors who do have HCV. Medications that are used to treat HCV will be given to the study subjects shortly after transplant to protect them from developing the problems HCV can cause to the liver.
