A Pilot Study Using Autologous Regulatory T Cell Infusion Zortress (Everolimus) in Renal Transplant Recipients

Tolerance Induction Using Autologous Regulatory T Cell Infusion and Zortress (Everolimus) in Renal Transplant Recipients: a Pilot Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 24 Jun 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study will enroll individuals who have end stage renal disease and who are undergoing a solitary kidney transplant. This study is investigating/evaluating the safety and effectiveness of collecting, expanding and infusing a specific certain type of immune cell known as Regulatory T cells (Treg cells) to renal transplant recipients who are using Zortress (Everolimus) as immunosuppressive therapy. Treg cells, once they have been expanded in the laboratory to help prevent kidney rejection. Treg cells are collected from a participant's blood through a procedure called apheresis. Treg cells are a type of white blood cells that are able to suppress the activity of other immune cells responsible for organ rejection. The investigator plans to enroll 12 participants at the University of Kentucky.
