About this study

Official title: Pilot Study of Cycling Treatment of Deoxyspergualin in Biopsy-proven Chronic Rejection of Kidney Transplantation

The purpose of this study to examine the efficacy and safety of cycling treatment of deoxyspergualin in renal transplant patients with biopsy-proven chronic rejection.

Read the detailed description

The primary aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy of deoxyspergualin after the completion of 6 cycles treatment. The efficacy valuables are histological findings in renal grafts, renal function, proteinuria, graft survival, anti-HLA antibody. The safety data are also evaluated in the study.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Deoxyspergualin in people with Chronic Rejection, run by Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd. at 8 sites in Japan.

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 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Insufficient patient enrollment). 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?

Histopathological findings by Banff criteria (time frame: 6 month after treatment initiation). 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 8 Jan 2014.
