Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this trial is to explore the effect of LY2127399 on those antibodies that are a barrier to kidney transplant. Transplantation is currently the definitive treatment for End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), providing prolonged survival and improved quality of life.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this study, LY2127399 will be tested as a potential treatment to reduce the blood proteins in some participants with ESRD. These proteins are called alloantibodies and are made by the body to react with other proteins on cells of transplanted organs called human leukocyte antigen (HLA) proteins. When a participant has these antibodies, they are referred to as HLA-presensitized. Often the presence of these antibodies, categorized by a method called the panel reactive antibody (PRA), can make a person ineligible to receive a transplant or experience very long wait times on the kidney transplant waiting list. Therefore the need to reduce the antibodies is significant for the successful treatment of ESRD. This study will treat ESRD participants for 6 months with LY2127399 and measure PRA levels for a total of 18 months.
