Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of AntiBKV as Treatment of BKV Infection in Kidney Transplant Recipients (SAFE KIDNEY II)

Overview

Información sobre este estudio

The purpose of this study is to address an unmet need for a targeted treatment against BK polyomavirus (BKV) associated nephropathy (BKVAN) in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs).  

Elegibilidad para la participación

Los requisitos de elegibilidad de los participantes incluyen la edad, el sexo, el tipo y el estadio de la enfermedad, y los problemas de salud o tratamientos previos. Las pautas difieren de un estudio a otro e identifican quiénes pueden o no pueden participar. No hay garantía de que cada persona elegible que desee participar en un ensayo se inscribirá. Comunícate con el equipo del estudio para analizar la elegibilidad del estudio y la posible participación.

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or female aged 18 years or older.
  • Kidney transplantation within 24 months prior to enrollment.
  • Kidney transplant recipient with first-time BK viremia (evaluated during routine clinical monitoring by the local laboratory and acknowledged by a physician within 4 months prior to Day 1). BK viremia is either defined by BKV-DNAemia of one time > 10,000 copies/mL, or > 1,000 copies/mL sustained for at least one week (confirmed by 2 consecutive measurements.
    • Note: The second, most recent laboratory value must be acknowledged by a physician within 4 months prior to Day 1).
  • Kidney transplant recipients with adequate and/or stable allograft function as indicated by estimated glomerular filtration rate ((e)GFR) 30 ml/min.
  • Female subjects (if of childbearing potential) must agree to use adequate and reliable contraceptive measures throughout their participation in the trial. Contraceptive use by women should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies.
  • Ability to provide written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with previous diagnosis of BK viremia (defined as one time > 10,000 copies/mL, or > 1,000 copies/mL sustained for at least one week (confirmed by 2 consecutive measurements) since last kidney transplantation.
  • Known hypersensitivity to any component of the investigational medicinal product (IMP).
  • Transplanted kidney disease with an estimated glomerular filtration rate ((e)GFR) < 30 mL/minute at screening.
  • Uncontrolled acute or chronic infection other than BK virus (BKV) infection at screening which might interfere with study participation at the discretion of the investigator.
  • Recipients who are treated or planned to be treated with a mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor or belatacept as part of their immunosuppression regimen post-transplantation at the time of enrollment.
  • Recipients who are treated or planned to be treated during study participation with leflunomide at the time of enrollment.
  • Recipients who, in the opinion of the investigator, are likely to require antibody-depletion therapy during trial participation. Antibody-depleting therapies include but are not necessarily limited to plasmapheresis, immunoadsorption, and intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIg).
  • Recipients with active kidney transplant rejection or FSGS.
  • Recipients who have medical conditions or receive concomitant medications that prevent the recipient from undergoing allograft biopsy
  • Recipients with known DSA (de novo or pre-transplantation). Kidney transplant recipients with low-level pretransplant DSAs (<1000 mean fluorescence intensity (MFI)) can be included if no impact on the study assessments is expected by the discretion of the investigator.
  • Recipients with extremely high BK virus (BKV)-DNAemia (> 10,000,000 copies/mL) or hemorrhagic cystitis.
  • Recipients who in the opinion of the investigator are likely to develop recurrent native kidney disease (e.g., immunoglobulin A [IgA] nephritis, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis [FSGS], C3 glomerulonephritis).
  • Recipients with a functionally significant ureteral stricture.
  • Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women.
  • Known current active or latent TB or any history, in the opinion of the investigator, that confers a risk of reactivation of latent TB and precludes the use of conventional immunosuppression
  • History of splenectomy or asplenia.
  • Any condition, that in the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with the evaluation of the investigational product or interpretation of the participant safety data or study results.
  • History of malignancy within the past 5 years, except completely excised basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or cervical carcinoma in situ at least 2 years prior to screening.
  • Participation in another interventional clinical trial during trial participation or within 30 days prior to the investigational medicinal product (IMP) dosing or planned dosing.
  • History of alcoholism or drug addiction within 1 year of screening. Substance use disorder will be an exclusion criterion, at investigators discretion.

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria may apply.

Eligibility last updated 12/13/23. Questions regarding updates should be directed to the study team contact.
