What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with response to extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) at 1 year

    Response is defined as either:

    • stable serum creatinine at 1 year after initiation of ECP, corresponding to a variation within ±20% of baseline serum creatinine (responder); or
    • a reduction in the slope of creatinine clearance decline following initiation of ECP compared with the pre-treatment trajectory (partial responder).

    Participants meeting either criterion are considered responders for the primary efficacy analysis.

    Measured: One year after initiation of ECP

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Antibody-mediated Rejection in Kidney Transplant, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Besancon at 1 site in France.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Charline Vauchy, PhD. (+33381218875, cvauchy@chu-besancon.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants with response to extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) at 1 year (time frame: One year after initiation of ECP). 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 29 Jun 2026.
