NCT ID: NCT02213068
Last Updated: 2023-02-08
Results Overview
To assess change in renal function by calculated (MDRD) GFR of adult EBV seropositive renal transplant recipients of living or standard criteria donors converted from Tacrolimus to Belatacept or low dose Tacrolimus with Belatacept at three months post-operatively compared to renal transplant recipients randomized to remain on standard dose Tacrolimus and MPA for maintenance therapy at 2 years post-transplantation

Belatacept + MPA
subjects continue MPA per SOC, receive bimonthly infusions of belatacept while gradually reducing and then discontinuing tacrolimus:
Belatacept: 5 mg/kg IV on Day 1, 15, 29, 43, and 57 post-conversion, then monthly thereafter.
Tacrolimus tapered over one month as follows:
Days 1- 14: SOC administration Day 15 (\~ 2 weeks into study): 40-60% of the previous dose Day 21 (\~ 3 weeks into study): 20-30% of the previous dose Day 30 (about 1 month): discontinue
MPA: administered according to SOC

Belatacept + Low-Dose Tac
Belatacept: 5 mg/kg IV on Day 1, 15, 29, 43, and 57 post-conversion, then monthly thereafter.
Tacrolimus tapered over one month as follows:
Days 1- 14: SOC administration Day 15 (\~ 2 weeks into study): 10% of the previous dose Day 21 (\~ 3 weeks into study): 20% of the previous dose Day 30 (\~ 1 month into study): 20% of the previous dose Target trough level ≤ 5 mg per ml of tacrolimus thereafter.

Tacrolimus + MPA Standard Treatment Regimen
Standard of Care treatment regimen:
Tacrolimus: administered orally twice daily (BID) The total initial dose of Tacrolimus is given at 0.1 mg/kg in two divided doses to achieve a stable 12-hour trough level of 8 - 12 ng/mL on Days 1 through 30, with dose reduction to achieve a 12-hour trough target of 5 - 10 ng/mL thereafter.
MPA: dosed orally per package insert beginning on the day of transplantation. Methylprednisolone as sodium succinate is administered as 500 mg IV, 250 mg IV, 125 mg IV, on Days 0, 1, and 2 without corticosteroid taper.
MPA dose adjustments for gastrointestinal side effects or leukopenia will be made at the discretion of the investigator.
