XM-One Study for Living Donor Program

November 10, 2015 updated by: Giselle Guerra, University of Miami

Donor-Specific Antibody (DSA) (HLA) levels and non-HLA antibody levels in recipients prior to living kidney transplantation and randomize these individuals into a desensitization protocol in order to evaluate shifts that can occur with the Luminex and XM-One assay after treatment and up to 6 months post transplant.

If desensitization is needed prior to transplantation in individuals with a negative crossmatch but positive DSA and/or XM-one - patients will be evaluated clinically with routine lab tests (serum creatinine levels, spot urine protein and spot urine creatinine levels) as well as protocol biopsy evaluations.

Detailed Description

  1. Rates of acute rejection including subclinical rejection - acute T cell mediated (cellular) rejection, antibody mediated acute rejection, and chronic antibody-associated injury (i.e.: Transplant Glomerulopathy, Chronic allograft arteriopathy) between the groups.
  2. Evaluation of endothelial cell activation and injury on biopsies by checking markers for endothelial cell activation and injury (intercellular adhesion molecule-1, ICAM-1/CD54; vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, VCAM-1/CD106; and E-selectin, ELAM-1/CD62E) in two-color stains of tissue with classical endothelial markers (CD34 and Factor VIII).
  3. Measurement of serum/plasma levels of TNF-alpha and VEGF and decreased levels of protein C and protein S in the circulation, as an assessment of graft vascular perturbation.
  4. Circulating Endothelial Cells (CECs) will be measured by flow cytometry with markers for endothelial cell activation.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
DSA
Time Frame: 1 year
To evaluate Donor-Specific Antibody (DSA) (HLA) levels with Luminex testing and non-HLA antibody levels using XM-One assay in recipients before and after transplantation for up to 6 months as well as in those recipients undergoing desensitization treatment.
1 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
DSA
Time Frame: 1 year

Rates of acute rejection including subclinical rejection - acute T cell mediated (cellular) rejection, antibody mediated acute rejection, and chronic antibody-associated injury (i.e.: Transplant Glomerulopathy, Chronic allograft arteriopathy) between the groups.

Determine role of desensitization prior to transplantation in individuals with a negative crossmatch but positive DSA and/or XM-one - based on Luminex and XM-One testing. Patients will be evaluated clinically with routine lab tests (serum creatinine levels, spot urine protein and spot urine creatinine levels) as well as protocol biopsy evaluations.
