Eligibility:

All Genders

7+ years

Phase:

PHASE2

Brief Summary

This study is being conducted to determine whether MAU868 warrants further clinical development for the prevention of BKV infection in kidney transplant recipients.

Detailed Description

This is a non-confirmatory, randomized, placebo-controlled, blinded, proof-of-concept study in kidney transplant recipients. Approximately 96 eligible subjects are planned to be randomized 2:1 to rece...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Inclusion criteria;
  • Male or female recipients of a first or second kidney or kidney-pancreas transplant who weigh at least 30 kg and are at least 7 years of age (in the US, 18 years of age or above) at the time of transplantation.
  • Recipients of organs from a heart-beating deceased, non-heart-beating deceased, living unrelated, or human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-mismatched living related donor.
  • Recipients who are treated with lymphocyte-depleting induction therapy (e.g., rabbit antithymocyte globulin, alemtuzumab). Subjects treated with rabbit antithymocyte globulin must receive a total dose of at least 3 mg/kg. Subjects treated with alemtuzumab must receive a total dose of at least 20 mg.
  • Recipients of a kidney with a cold ischemia time (CIT) \<36 hours.
  • Exclusion Criteria:
  • Recipients of organs from identical twins or living, HLA-matched, related donors.
  • ABO incompatible or complement-dependent lymphocytotoxic (CDC) crossmatch positive transplant (isolated positive B cell crossmatches are not an exclusion criterion).
  • Recipients who are treated with non-lymphocyte-depleting induction therapy (e.g., basiliximab) or no induction therapy.
  • Recipients who are treated or planned to be treated with mTOR inhibitors as part of their initial immunosuppression regimen post-transplantation.
  • Recipients who require antibody-depletion prior to transplantation and in the opinion of the investigator are likely to require antibody-depletion after transplantation. Antibody-depleting therapies include but are not necessarily limited to plasmapharesis, immunoadsorption, and IVIg.
  • Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women, where pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until the termination of gestation, confirmed by hCG testing.
  • Current clinical, radiographic, or laboratory evidence of active or latent tuberculosis (TB) or any history, in the opinion of the investigator, that confers a risk of reactivation of TB and precludes the use of conventional immunosuppression.
  • History of splenectomy or asplenia.
  • Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, unless they are using basic methods of contraception during dosing of investigational drug.
