Safety of Immunosuppression Minimization in Children and Adolescents After Kidney Transplantation

14 februari 2013 uppdaterad av: National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)

Immunosuppression Minimization to Single Drug Therapy With Sirolimus (Rapamune) in Pediatric Transplantation

Kidney transplantation is widely considered to be the treatment of choice for children with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of sirolimus monotherapy for long-term immunosuppression in children and adolescents after kidney transplantation.

Detaljerad beskrivning

Improvements in surgical techniques, donor selection, immunosuppression practices, and the enhanced experience of specialized pediatric transplant teams have all led to marked improvements in patient and kidney graft survival in infants and young children Long-term graft survival rates decrease in adolescents 11 to 17 years of age. Several studies have suggested this decrease may be the result of noncompliance with immunosuppressive medications in this age group. Therefore, protocols that minimize the use of immunosuppressive medications, while retaining kidney function are necessary for improving graft and patient survival in children. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of sirolimus monotherapy for long-term immunosuppression in children and adolescents after kidney transplantation.

This study will enroll 10 participants who previously completed the CCTPT-PC01 study. The accrual period is scheduled for 12 months. The study follow-up period will last 96 weeks. Patients from the CCTPT-PC01 study have been maintained on sirolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) since 2-3 months post transplant. Enrolled participants receiving (MMF) or Azathioprine at study entry will have their doses withdrawn gradually over a period of 6 months. Dosage will be reduced by 25% initially and by 25% every 2 months resulting in complete withdrawal by 6 months.

This study will consist of 11 study visits after screening and study entry. Study visits will occur at weeks 1, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 60, 72, 84, and 96. A physical exam, vital signs, sirolimus levels, as well as blood and urine collection will occur at all visits. A renal biopsy will be performed at week 96.

Intervention / Behandling
Experimentell: 1

Participants who have been maintained on MMF at study entry will start the study on 600 mg/m2 MMF orally daily. Participants who have been maintained on Azathioprine due to MMF intolerance will receive 1 mg/kg Azathioprine orally daily.

Participants will continue receiving sirolimus throughout the study. However, MMF or Azathioprine will be withdrawn gradually over a period of at least 6 months. Dosage will be reduced by 25% initially and by 25% every subsequent 2 months resulting in complete withdrawal by 6 months.
Läkemedel: Sirolimus
Oral tablets or liquid taken every 12 hours. Dosage adjusted to attain target trough levels of 8-12 ng/mL. Participants who have maintained such levels at study entry on once daily dosage will be permitted to continue on once daily dosing.
Andra namn:
  • Rapamycin, Rapamune
Läkemedel: MMF or Azathioprine
600 mg/m2 MMF taken orally daily or Azathioprine orally daily. Dosage of Azathioprine is dependent on weight. MMF or Azathioprine will be reduced by 25% initially and by 25% every 2 months resulting in complete withdrawal by 6 months.
