Study summary

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the reduction in incidence and severity of delayed graft function with kidney allografts from donors >45 years after brain death (DBD).

Read the detailed description

This is a Phase 3 randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multi-center trial stratified by donor age and by region to evaluate the reduction in incidence and severity of delayed graft function with kidney allografts from DBD donors who were at least 45 years of age.

Inclusion criteria

  • Has the ability to understand the requirements of the study, is able to provide written and is willing and able to comply with the requirements of the study protocol.
  • Male or female at least 18 years of age.
  • Has dialysis dependent renal failure initiated at least 2 months prior to transplantation.
  • Is to be a recipient of a transplant from a deceased donor (brain death criteria) ≥ 45 years of age.
  • Based on donor age, the following requirements for the risk of DGF (determined using the Irish DGF risk assessment nomogram) and cold ischemia time (CIT) must be met:

    • Donor age 45 - 59 years: estimated DGF risk ≥ 20% and estimated CIT ≥ 10 hour
    • Donor age ≥ 60 years: no minimum estimated DGF risk or minimum estimated CIT

  • Must be up-to-date on cancer screening according to site-specific guidelines and past medical history must be negative for -confirmed within 5 years of randomization, with the exception of adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma in situ or carcinoma of the cervix in situ.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Recipient of a live donor kidney or a kidney from a donation after cardiac death (DCD) donor.
  • Recipient of donor kidney preserved with normothermic machine perfusion.
  • Scheduled to undergo multiorgan transplantation.
  • Has a planned transplant of kidneys that are implanted en bloc (dual kidney transplant).
  • Has planned transplant of dual kidneys (from the same donor) transplanted not en bloc.
  • Has lost first kidney transplant due to graft thrombosis.

  • Is -positive (detectable HCV RNA) (Note: Subjects at least 24 weeks from completion of treatment with an approved antiviral regimen and who remain free of HCV as determined by HCV RNA testing may be enrolled. Subjects who have been cleared of HCV virus after treatment with an unapproved regimen should be approved by the Medical Monitor).
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(7)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Biopsy and archival tissue

A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.

Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Hepatitis B tests

Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.

Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.

HIV

The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.

Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.

Hepatitis C tests

Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.

After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on May 13, 2020, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
