NCT01170910

Brief Summary

Our hypothesis is that the Waters Medical® pulsatile perfusion machine (RM 3) is a way to improve delayed graft function (DGF) in marginal grafts, and some perfusion profiles (flow, pressure, resistance index, venous effluent pH) are correlated with better recovery of renal function (without dialysis during the first week after transplant). Observation or Investigation Method Used : The study is multicenter, prospective, open, controlled and randomized:grafts are divided into two parallel groups:

  • group 1 corresponds to a conservation of grafts in static incubation
  • group 2 corresponds to conservation using a pulsatile perfusion machine Duration and Organizational Arrangements for Research : The total duration of the study is planned for 36 months. This duration includes:
  • an inclusion period that will last 24 months,
  • the follow-up of recipient patients from the day of transplantation until twelve months after the operation

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Delayed graft function (DGF) rate defined as the need to resort to dialysis during the first week after transplantation. The main dialysis factors retained are hydrosodic and/or hyperkalemic overload.

    First week after transplantation

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Evaluate improvement in the glomerular filtering rate

    12 months after transplantation

  • Evaluate the recourse to dialysis

    3 months following transplantation

  • Evaluate the proportion of functional grafts (which allows for renal purification without recourse to dialysis)

    12 months after transplantation

  • Evaluate patient survival

    12 months after transplantation

  • Stratify the analysis of regaining function and graft survival using Nyberg's classification in order to determine which risk groups would most benefit from pulsatile perfusion.

    12 months after transplantation

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Static incubation

OTHER

If conservation in static incubation (group 1) is chosen by random selection, the transplant should be carried out while keeping the cold ischemic time (CIT) as short as possible (preferably less than 18 hours). Keep in mind that for reasons of homogeneity for result analysis and for conservation quality, it is recommended that kidneys in group 1 be conserved in University of Wisconsin (eg, UW, Belzer® or Viaspan®), IGL-1, or SCOT solution.

Procedure: Static incubation

Pulsatile perfusion

EXPERIMENTAL

If conservation in a pulsatile perfusion machine (group 2) is chosen by random selection, the kidney will be placed in the perfusion machine within two hours and should be kept there at least 6 hours and 8 hours if possible, before being transplanted

Procedure: Pulsatile perfusion

Interventions

Kidneys in this group are conserved in University of Wisconsin (eg, UW, Belzer® or Viaspan®), IGL-1, or SCOT solution before being transplanted. .

Static incubation

Kidneys in this group are placed in the pulsatile perfusion machine(RM 3) within two hours and should be kept there at least 6 hours and 8 hours if possible, before being transplanted
