Evaluation of Anti-rejection Drug, Tacrolimus, in African-Americans With Kidney Transplant
Evaluation of Early Dose Escalation Using Extended-Release Tacrolimus (Envarsus XR®) to Reduce Acute Rejection and Donor Specific Antibodies in African American Renal Transplant Recipients
研究概览
详细说明
Phase 4 (post-marketing) De novo African American living or deceased donor renal transplant recipients 18 to 65 years of age Number of subjects to be enrolled: 60
All patients will receive standard induction immunosuppression according to institution protocol. Within one week of transplantation, all patients will be converted from immediate-release tacrolimus (TAC) to extended-release tacrolimus (ENV) at 20% reduction in total daily dosage. Patients will be randomized to low-, moderate-, or high-intensity ENV groups, stratified by peak panel reactive antibody (pPRA) greater than or equal to 75%. Target tacrolimus trough concentrations for the first month post-transplant will be 8-10 ng/mL in low-intensity group, 10-12 ng/mL in moderate-intensity group, and 12-14 ng/mL in high-intensity group; likewise from month 1-3 post-transplant, target trough concentrations will be 6-8 ng/mL, 8-10 ng/mL, and 10-12 ng/mL, respectively. Subjects experiencing dose-limiting adverse events (AEs) will be de-escalated as warranted. Following month 3, all patients will be maintained on ENV at target tacrolimus trough concentrations according to institution protocol. Additional maintenance immunosuppression will consist of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) at a goal dose of 2000 mg daily along with an oral prednisone taper to 5-10 mg daily by the end of month 1. All patients will be followed for 6 months post-transplant.

Composite endpoint of freedom from all of the following: i) biopsy-proven T-cell mediated rejection Banff Grade ≥1A, ii) antibody-mediated rejection, iii) de novo DSA, or iv) immune-mediated graft loss.
The endpoint is a binary endpoint (Yes or No) of the composite of all 4 potential outcomes.
The presence of any one of the four possible outcomes will be counted as a No for the binary endpoint (no freedom from the composite endpoint).
