NCT05140018

Brief Summary

Rationale: Despite improved patient and graft survival in renal transplant recipients, still 20% of the patients reaches end-stage renal disease within 5 years after transplantation. Antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) is one of the major causes of early graft loss and perhaps even more important of late deterioration of graft function Objective: Evaluate the occurrence of antibody mediated rejection (ABMR) and mixed ABMR and cellular/ T-cell mediated rejection (TCMR), in patients treated with the currently prevailing immunosuppressive regimens, and relate them to outcome (graft survival, function, proteinuria, histology) Study design: Clinical cohort study. Study population: patients of \>18 years old, about to receive a post mortal of living donor renal transplant with an immunological high risk for ABMR. Main study parameters/endpoints: main study endpoints are the occurrence of ABMR, mixed ABMR/TCMR and renal function after 1 year of follow-up. The main study parameter will be mapping the immune system, including B-cells, (non-)HLA antibodies, interaction between B-cells and T follicular helper cells, and complete immune profiling.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Incidence of Antibody-Mediated Rejection (ABMR)

    Incidence of Antibody-Mediated Rejection (ABMR) as histopathological diagnosis

    within 12 months after transplantation

  • Incidence of mixed Antibody-Mediated Rejection / T-Cell Mediated Rejection (ABMR/TCMR)

    Incidence of mixed Antibody-Mediated Rejection / T-Cell Mediated Rejection as histopathological diagnosis(ABMR/TCMR) as histopathological diagnosis

    within 12 months after transplantation

  • Kidney transplant function

    as measured by eGFR and proteinuria

    at 12 months after transplantation

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Development of Human-Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) antibodies

    At 3 and 12 months after transplantation

  • Development of non-HLA antibodies

    At 3 and 12 months after transplantation

  • Kidney transplant survival

    At 12 months after transplantation

Study Arms (2)

Kidney Transplant Recipients with an immunological high risk for ABMR

* Kidney transplant recipients ≥18 years old * About to receive a post mortal or living donor renal transplant * Immunological high risk for rejection 1. Luminex positive DSAs ; or 2. Retransplantation with repeated mismatch ; or 3. Husband to wife donation (after fathering children); or 4. Offspring to mother donation

Procedure: Kidney TransplantationCombination Product: Immunosuppression

Living Kidney Donors

Participants who are about to donate their kidney to a Recipient with a high immunological risk (as described above)

Procedure: Nephrectomy (kidney donation)

Interventions

All participants will receive a kidney transplantation from a living donor or deceased donor

Kidney Transplant Recipients with an immunological high risk for ABMR
ImmunosuppressionCOMBINATION_PRODUCT

All participants will receive immunosuppresive drugs to prevent rejection of de kidney transplant graft.

Kidney Transplant Recipients with an immunological high risk for ABMR

All kidney donors will receive a nephrectomy for kidney donation
