About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Pilot, Multicenter, Single Arm Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of GSK1070806 Plus Standard of Care for the Prevention of Delayed Graft Function in Adult Subjects After Renal Transplantation

This is a phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of GSK1070806 in subjects undergoing renal transplantation. GSK1070806 is an anti-interleukin 18 (IL18) monoclonal antibody, which binds to IL-18 and inhibits signaling through the IL-18 receptor. Recipients of donor kidneys, retrieved after circulatory death of the donor, will be administered a single intravenous infusion of GSK1070806 to test whether inhibition of IL-18 can reduce the rate of Delayed Graft Function (DGF) and graft rejection. Subjects will be followed for 12 months post dose/transplant. Up to 40 adult subjects will be enrolled in this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants Requiring Dialysis During the First 7 Days Post Transplant

    The requirement of dialysis (except as needed for hyperkalaemia during the first 24 hours [hrs]) were used to assess the frequency of delayed graft function (DGF) in donation after circulatory death (DCD) renal transplant recipients treated with GSK1070806. The 'Analysis Population' (AP) is defined as participants in the 'All Subjects' Population who have been declared to have DGF or have reached 7 days.

    Measured: Up to Day 7

Secondary outcomes (18)
  1. Serum Creatinine at Baseline and Change From Baseline Over Time Post Transplant

    Blood samples were collected to measure serum creatinine at the indicated timepoints to assess graft function in DCD renal transplant recipients treated with GSK1070806. Baseline value was the latest pre-dose assessment value. Change from Baseline was post Baseline value minus Baseline value. NA indicates data is not available as standard deviation could not be calculated due to n=1. The AP Population is defined as participants having Baseline and at least one post-Baseline assessment.

    Measured: Baseline and up to 12 months

  2. Urine Volume at Baseline and Change From Baseline Over Time Post Transplant

    Urine volume at Baseline and over time post transplant was measured to assess graft function in DCD renal transplant recipients treated with GSK1070806. Baseline value was the latest pre-dose assessment value. Change from Baseline was post Baseline value minus Baseline value. All Subjects Population comprised of participants who received the dose of study medication.

    Measured: Baseline (Pre-operative) and up to Day 28

  3. Number of Participants in the First 7 Days With: Primary Non Function, Functional DGF, Intermediate Graft Function, Immediate Graft Function

    Number of participants in the first 7 days with primary non function, functional DGF, intermediate graft function and immediate graft function were evaluated to access graft function in DCD renal transplant recipients treated with GSK1070806. The AP Population is defined as participants in the 'All Subjects' Population who have been declared to have DGF or have reached 7 days.

    Measured: Up to Day 7

  4. Number of Participants With Episodes of Biopsy-proven Acute Rejection

    Number of participants with episodes of biopsy-proven acute rejection were evaluated to assess the effect of GSK1070806 on acute rejection risk, and rejection/Pharmacodynamic (PD) biomarkers.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  5. Serum Interferon Gamma-induced Protein 10 (IP-10) and Serum Monokine Induced Gamma Interferon (Mig) Levels at Baseline and Change From Baseline Over Time Post Transplant

    The interferon-gamma -inducible chemokine IP10 and the interferon-gamma -inducible chemokine Mig have been identified as an early predictive marker of antibody-mediated kidney graft rejection. Baseline value was the latest pre-dose assessment value. Change from Baseline was calculated as post Baseline value minus Baseline value.

    Measured: Baseline and at 0.75 hours, 4-8 hours, Day 1, Day 2, Day 30, Day 90, 6 months and 12 months post reperfusion

  6. Number of Participants With Dialysis Events in the First 30 Days Post-transplant

    Number of participants with dialysis events in the first 30 days post transplant was evaluated to assess the effect of GSK1070806 on dialysis dependency and graft survival. The AP Population is defined as participants having Baseline and at least one post-Baseline assessment.

    Measured: Up to 30 days

  7. Number of Participants Who Are Dialysis Independent at Visits up to 12 Months Post-transplant

    Number of participants who are dialysis independent at visits up to 12 months post transplant was evaluated to assess the effect of GSK1070806 on dialysis dependency and graft survival.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  8. Number of Participants With Adverse Event (AE) and Serious Adverse Event (SAE)

    AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. Any untoward event resulting in death, life threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect or any other situation according to medical or scientific judgment were categorized as SAE.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  9. Number of Participants Having Any Abnormality in Hematology Results of Potential Clinical Importance

    Blood samples were collected to evaluate hematology parameters. Number of participants with abnormality in any hematology parameter results of potential clinical importance (high or low) observed at any time post Baseline are presented.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  11. Number of Participants Having Any Abnormality of Potential Clinical Importance of Vital Signs Results

    Vital signs parameters included analysis of systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR) and body temperature. Number of participants with any abnormality of potential clinical importance (high or low) in any of these vitals signs at any time post Baseline visit have been presented. PCI (high or low) was considered if SBP (low: <85, high:>160), DBP (low: <45, high>100), HR (low: <40, high: >110) and temperature (low: <35.5, high: >37.5).

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 9 inclusion and 20 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 26 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United Kingdom, Spain. 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 10 Jun 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?

Number of Participants Requiring Dialysis During the First 7 Days Post Transplant (time frame: Up to Day 7). 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 NCT02723786, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jun 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
