Effects of Inhibiting Early Inflammation in Kidney Transplant Patients
Randomized Controlled Trial of Infliximab (Remicade®) Induction Therapy for Deceased Donor Kidney Transplant Recipients (CTOT-19)
During transplant surgery, there is a period of time when a donated kidney is removed from a donor's body and stored until the time of the transplant surgery. The storage procedure results in buildup of various proteins within the kidney that can injure the donated kidney after it is transplanted. One of these proteins is tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether taking infliximab, which blocks tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), just prior to transplant surgery, along with usual transplant medicines will protect the donated kidney from damage caused by TNF-alpha and help keep the transplanted kidney healthy for a longer period of time.

Time Frame |
---|---|---|
The Difference Between the Mean eGFR (Modified MDRD) in the Experimental vs. Control Groups.
Time Frame: 24-Month post-transplantation
|
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a measure of kidney function and helps determine the stage of kidney disease.
eGFR was estimated using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation.
A value of 90+ means kidney function is normal.
A value between 60 and 89 indicates mildly reduced kidney function, pointing to kidney disease.
Values between 30 and 59 indicates moderately reduced kidney function.
Values between 15 and 29 indicate severely reduced kidney function.
Values below 15 indicate very severe or endstage kidney failure.
eGFR values from months 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 were used to generate an estimate of the month 24 eGFR for each treatment group.

The ci (interstitial fibrosis) and ct (tubular atrophy) scores are two such characteristics.
The scores can take values of 0, 1, 2, or 3 for each characteristic (ci and ct), indicating increasing severity of disease as the scores increase.
For this endpoint, the sum of ci+ct scores from the implantation biopsy was subtracted from the sum of the ci+ct scores from the month 24 biopsy and the difference between the two time points was classified as 0, 1, 2, or 3+.
Higher values of this difference indicate more severe disease.

A value of 90+ means kidney function is normal.
A value between 60 and 89 indicates mildly reduced kidney function, pointing to kidney disease.
Values between 30 and 59 indicates moderately reduced kidney function.
Values between 15 and 29 indicate severely reduced kidney function.
Values below 15 indicate very severe or endstage kidney failure.
eGFR values from day 7 and months 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 were used to generate an estimate of the eGFR at each time point of interest for each treatment group.

|
24 months post-transplantation
|
Percent of Participants That Required at Least One Dialysis Treatment.
Time Frame: 1 week post-transplantation
|
Dialysis within the first week post-transplant is used in the setting of delayed graft function (DGF).
Participants are considered to have had DGF if they had at least one dialysis treatment in the first week post-transplant.
|
1 week post-transplantation
|

Duration of Delayed Graft Function (DGF), Defined as Time From Transplantation to the Last Required Dialysis Treatment.
Time Frame: First post-transplant dialysis treatment to last post-transplant dialysis treatment
|
Participants are considered to have had DGF if they had at least one dialysis treatment in the first week post-transplant.
For this endpoint, duration was calculated as the date of last post-transplant dialysis treatment minus the date of the first post-transplant dialysis treatment.
|
First post-transplant dialysis treatment to last post-transplant dialysis treatment
|
Percent of Participants With Primary Non-Function (PNF), Defined as Dialysis-dependency for More Than 3 Months.
Time Frame: Transplantation through at least month 3 up to month 24
|
Post-transplant dialysis is sometimes required in the setting of kidney transplant.
If such dialysis continues for more than 3 months, the participant is considered to have PNF and, as such, meets this endpoint definition.
|
Transplantation through at least month 3 up to month 24
|
Change From Baseline (Immediately After Surgery) in Serum Creatinine.
Time Frame: 24, 48 and 72 hours post-transplantation
|
Serum creatinine (mg/dL) is used to measure kidney function.
A normal result is 0.7 to 1.3 mg/dL for men and 0.6 to 1.1 mg/dL for women.
Higher results indicate poorer kidney function, as creatinine is removed from the body by the kidneys.
eGFR values from 24, 48, and 72 hours post-transplant (i.e., days 1, 2, and 3) were used to generate an estimate of the serum creatinine at each time point of interest for each treatment group.
|
24, 48 and 72 hours post-transplantation
|
Days From Transplantation Until Event (ACR, AMR, or Hospitalization for Infection and/or Malignancy)
Time Frame: 24 months post-transplantation
|
Participants are considered to have met this endpoint if they experienced biopsy-proven T-cell mediated rejection (ACR) or antibody mediated rejection (AMR) based on central pathology reading or were hospitalized for infection and/or malignancy.
For participants who met one or more of these three components, the earliest event date of the three components was used as the time of meeting the endpoint.
Participants who did not meet any of the three components were censored at their last date of follow-up.
Event (or censor) day was calculated as event (or censor) date minus transplant date.
|
24 months post-transplantation
|
The Percent of Participants With a Serum Creatinine of More Than 3 mg/dL.
Time Frame: Day 5 post-transplantation
|
Serum creatinine (mg/dL) is used to measure kidney function.
A normal result is 0.7 to 1.3 mg/dL for men and 0.6 to 1.1 mg/dL for women.
Higher results indicate poorer kidney function, as creatinine is removed from the body by the kidneys.
This endpoint is ascertaining slow graft function in the immediate days post-transplant.
A participant was considered to have met this endpoint if their day 5 serum creatinine was greater than 3 mg/dL.
|
Day 5 post-transplantation
|
Creatinine Reduction Ratio (CRR), Defined as the First Creatinine on Day 2 Divided by he First Creatinine After Surgery
Time Frame: Day 2 post-transplantation
|
Serum creatinine (mg/dL) is used to measure kidney function.
A normal result is 0.7 to 1.3 mg/dL for men and 0.6 to 1.1 mg/dL for women.
Higher results indicate poorer kidney function, as creatinine is removed from the body by the kidneys.
CRR was calculated as the day 1 post-transplant creatinine value minus the day 2 creatinine value divided by the day 1 creatinine value and multiplied by 100, resulting in a percentage.
Higher numbers indicate a greater reduction in serum creatinine and, thus, potentially better kidney function.
|
Day 2 post-transplantation
|
Creatinine Reduction Ratio (CRR), Defined as the First Creatinine on Day 5 Divided by the First Creatinine After Surgery.
Time Frame: Day 5 post-transplantation
|
Serum creatinine (mg/dL) is used to measure kidney function.
A normal result is 0.7 to 1.3 mg/dL for men and 0.6 to 1.1 mg/dL for women.
Higher results indicate poorer kidney function, as creatinine is removed from the body by the kidneys.
CRR was calculated as the day 1 post-transplant creatinine value minus the day 5 creatinine value divided by the day 1 creatinine value and multiplied by 100, resulting in a percentage.
Higher numbers indicate a greater reduction in serum creatinine and, thus, potentially better kidney function.
|
Day 5 post-transplantation
|
