About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Study of TLI Pretransplant to Prevent Recurrence of FSGS in the Graft

The purpose was study the immunosuppression using total lymphoid irradiation plus Csa, MMF and prednisone pretransplant to prevent focal segmental glomerulosclerosis recurrence in the renal graft

Read the detailed description

Focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is resistant to treatment with immunosuppressants and after transplant, 40% of such patients have recurrences in renal allograft. The purpose of this trial was to use Total Lymphoid Irradiation (TLI) plus mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), cyclosporine A (CsA) and prednisone (PRED) to prevent recurrence.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Total Lymphoid irradiation in people with Glomerulosclerosis, Focal, run by University of Sao Paulo at 1 site in Brazil.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jul 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Brazil. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Efficacy of immunosuppression using TLI plus CsA, MMF and Pred in prevent recurrence of FSGS after the renal transplant. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Jul 2006.
