About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label, Comparative Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Sirolimus Versus Cyclosporine When Combined in a Regimen Containing Basiliximab, Mycophenolate Mofetil, and Corticosteroids in Primary De Novo Renal Allograft Recipients

The purpose of this study is to determine if one drug is superior to another with regard to safety and the preservation of renal function after a kidney transplant.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To demonstrate the superiority of the sirolimus regimen versus cyclosporin A by intent to treat analysis of kidney function at 52 weeks, measured by mean glomerular filtration rate (GFR)

  2. Non-inferiority of the composite of graft loss and death at 52 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence and severity of rejection at 12, 24, 52, 104, 156, 208 weeks; GFR at 24, 104, 156, 208 weeks; progression of chronic allograft nephropathy or deterioration of transplanted kidney at 52 weeks

  2. quality of life at 24, 52 and 104 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing sirolimus in people with Kidney Transplant, run by Wyeth is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer at 82 sites in 21 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 82 sites in United States, Argentina, Spain, Australia, Chile and 16 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To demonstrate the superiority of the sirolimus regimen versus cyclosporin A by intent to treat analysis of kidney function at 52 weeks, measured by mean glomerular filtration rate (GFR). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00137345, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
