Brief Summary

The gold standard for characterizing chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which is commonly estimated in both native and transplanted kidneys for patient monitoring and therapeutic management and ultimately guides decision-making about whether a patient needs renal replacement therapy. In particular, the National Kidney Foundation has defined CKD stages according to estimated GFR (eGFR) values and in several studies, the eGFR slope or change has been found to be strongly associated with end stage renal disease (ESRD). However, little is known about the heterogeneity of eGFR evolution in time - i.e. eGFR trajectories - and the related progression to ESRD and death. To date, no studies have investigated eGFR trajectories in diversified cohorts and populations worldwide, although this approach could provide a better understanding of CKD evolution and hence improve risk stratification. In addition, determinants of eGFR trajectories remain poorly described. An unsupervised approach could allow examining eGFR trajectories over time and could lead to the identification of patient groups according to the probability of the progression of their kidney disease. Therefore, this study aims:

  1. 1.To identify the long-term eGFR trajectories after kidney transplantation using latent class mixed models;
  2. 2.To identify the clinical, immunological, histological and functional determinants of the eGFR trajectories using multinomial regressions;
  3. 3.To investigate the associations of the eGFR trajectories with the progression to ESRD and death.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • eGFR trajectories

    eGFR trajectories probabilities, calculated from a prediction system (based on clinical, histological, immunological, and functional factors) assessed at 1-year post transplantation.

    Up to 10 years after kidney transplantation

Interventions

Kidney recipients aged over 18 and of all sexes recruited from 2000 in European and North American centers, who have eGFR follow-up and data from protocol and for cause biopsies available for allograft survival assessment; Randomized controlled trials conducted over the past 20 years with available data on protocol biopsy within the first year and follow up clinical, biological and histological data.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Kidney recipients aged over 18 and of all sexes recruited from 2000 in European and North American centers, who have eGFR repeated measurements, data from protocol and for cause biopsies, as well as immunological, clinical, functional parameters and survival data for allograft and patient survival assessment. Additional kidney recipients from RCTs with longitudinal data including baseline and follow-up clinical, functional, immunological and histological data.

You may qualify if:

  • Kidney recipients transplanted after 2000
  • Kidney recipients over 18 years of age
  • Kidney recipients with at least two eGFR measurements after transplantation

You may not qualify if:

  • Combined transplantation
