Brief Summary

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

The REWARM study is a randomized controlled clinical efficacy study, with primary outcome renal function 12 months after transplantation of kidneys recovered from deceased donors aged 50 years or older. Prior to transplantation, kidney grafts in the intervention group will receive 6 hours of NMP, following standard HMP and kidneys in the control group will only receive standard treatment, being HMP. It is a multi-center trial. Given the total annual 50+ deceased donor kidney transplantation volume of the three participating transplant centers combined, inclusions in the study are expected to last 2.5-3 years, aiming for a total of 120 patients in each of the two arms (240 patients total).

Study Groups

Hypothermic machine perfusion

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Normothermic machine perfusion

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Normothermic machine perfusion

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

To determine whether a 4-6 hour period of normothermic machine perfusion, following standard hypothermic machine perfusion, results in better graft function after transplantation, compared to hypothermic machine perfusion preservation alone of kidneys recovered from deceased donors aged 50 years or older
