TruGraf® Testing in High-Risk Kidney Transplant Recipients

August 26, 2021 updated by: Transplant Genomics, Inc.

Molecular Biomarkers in Renal Transplant Recipients at Higher Risk of Acute Rejection

This is an observational study to evaluate TruGraf® testing in high immune risk kidney transplant recipients. TruGraf is the first and only non-invasive test approved by Medicare to rule out silent rejection in stable kidney transplant recipients.

Study Population

Kidney transplant recipients with high immune risk who are undergoing routine management

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • High immune risk kidney transplant recipients defined by one of the following criteria: either a positive pretransplant donor specific anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibody, or a pre-transplant panel reactive antibody >75%.
  • Recipient of a primary or subsequent deceased-donor or living donor kidney transplantation.
  • Stable serum creatinine (current serum creatinine <2.3 mg/dl, <20% increase compared to the average of the previous 3 serum creatinine levels).
  • Kidney transplant patients who are at least 30 days post-transplant.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Need for combined organ transplantation with an extra-renal organ and/or islet cell transplant.
  • Recipients who do not meet criteria of high-immune risk.
  • Recipients of previous non-renal solid organ and/or islet cell transplantation.
  • Infection with HIV.
  • Infection with BK.
  • Patients that have nephrotic proteinuria (urine protein >3 gm/day).
