Brief Summary

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

The objective of the proposed study is to assess whether a blood biomarker can be used to monitor the response to rejection treatment in pediatric kidney transplant recipients with biopsy-proven acute cellular or antibody mediated rejection. The study hypothesizes that blood gene expression profile and donor-derived cell-free DNA biomarkers (omnigraf) can be used to predict acute rejection and monitor its response to treatment.
