What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Safety of FR104 - Adverse Events with a focus on infectious complications. In particular

    Type, severity (grades 3 and 4 adverse effects)., number and percent of Adverse Events with a focus on infectious complications. In particular, the following cumulative incidences will be calculated: Incidence of bacterial, fungal, viral, or parasitic infection, incidence of new malignancies, lymphopenia, anemia, leucopenia, cytopenia or biochemical disturbances related to the study drug.

    Time frame: Until Month 12

Secondary outcomes

  1. Efficacy on Renal function

    Calculated glomerular filtration rate (CKD EPI) at each visit.

    Time frame: Month 6 and Month 12

  2. Efficacy on Biopsy-proven acute rejection (BPAR)

    Acute cellular rejection seen on renal biopsy for cause up to Month 12 (per Banff criteria 2017)

    Time frame: Month 12

  3. Efficacy on clinically-treated acute rejections

    Graft acute rejection up to Month 12. Number of AE related to treatment. Incidence and grade of rejection proven on Biopsy analysed after M12.

    Time frame: Month 12

  4. Efficacy on steroid-resistant episodes

    Steroid resistant episodes up to Month 12. Corticoresistant rejection up to month 12 defined as non response at day 5-6 after steroid boluses.

    Time frame: Month 12

  5. Efficacy on multiples rejection episodes

    Rejection episodes up to Month 12. Number of rejection after M12. According to histology. Incidence of biopsy-proven rejection (by banff grade).

    Time frame: Month 12

  6. Efficacy on chronic allograft nephropathy

    Chronic allograft nephropathy seen on renal biopsy for cause up to Month 12

    Time frame: Month 12

  7. Efficacy on graft survival

    Renal dialysis or new kidney transplant up to Month 12

    Time frame: Month 12

  8. Treatment failure time

    Time to treatment failure up to M12 (Biopsy-proven acute rejection, Graft Loss or Death)

    Time frame: Month 12

  9. Evaluate the first Biopsy-proven acute rejection time

    Time to the first Biopsy-proven acute rejection

    Time frame: Month 12

  10. Evaluate the appearance of Donor specific Antibodies

    Appearance of Donor specific Antibodies

    Time frame: Month 12
