About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Single-Arm, Multicenter Trial to Determine Safety and Efficacy of Eculizumab in the Prevention of Antibody Mediated Rejection (AMR) in Sensitized Recipients of a Kidney Transplant From a Deceased Donor.

Primary Objective:

To evaluate the safety and potential efficacy of eculizumab to prevent AMR in sensitized recipients of deceased donor kidney transplants.

Being tested

EculizumabExperimentalEculizumab 1200 milligrams (mg) was administered intravenously (IV) over 25 to 45 minutes 1 hour prior to kidney allograft reperfusion. Eculizumab 900 mg was administered IV over 25 to 45 minutes on post-transplantation Days 1 and 7, and on post-transplantation Days 14, 21, and 28, plus or minus 2 days. Eculizumab 1200 mg was administered IV over 25 to 45 minutes on post-transplantation Days 35, 49, and 63, plus or minus 2 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Post-transplantation Treatment Failure In The First 9 Weeks Post Transplantation

    Results are reported for post-transplantation treatment failure and composite endpoints, defined as the occurrence of biopsy-proven acute antibody-mediated rejection (AMR), graft loss, death, or loss to follow-up (including discontinuation) in the first 9 weeks post transplantation. The diagnosis of acute AMR (occurring within the first 9 weeks post transplantation) was based on kidney allograft dysfunction and a biopsy performed due to suspected rejection, proteinuria, increased serum creatinine, or acute tubular necrosis. Treatment failure was the occurrence of at least 1 of the composite endpoint components by Week 9 post transplantation. A participant experiencing multiple events was only counted once for the composite endpoint.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 9

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Eculizumab in people with Stage V Chronic Kidney Disease, run by Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. at 15 sites in 6 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 7 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 3 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in France, Australia, Italy, Sweden, United Kingdom and 1 more country. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 3 May 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Post-transplantation Treatment Failure In The First 9 Weeks Post Transplantation (time frame: Baseline, Week 9). 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 3 May 2019.
