Immune Monitoring to Facilitate Belatacept Monotherapy

Name
2019P002608
Description
* To determine the utility of novel blood-based immune monitoring tools (Allosure and Trugraf) to facilitate belatacept monotherapy. * To determine the percent of belatacept-treated renal transplant patients that can be safely converted to belatacept monotherapy.

Eligibility criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * Age minimum 18 years * Written informed consent * Single kidney transplant recipient (i.e. no combined organ transplants) * Treated with de novo belatacept since transplantation (i.e. no previous use of calcineurin inhibitor or mTOR inhibitor for the current transplant) * At least 1 year after transplantation or after initiation of belatacept * Stable renal function (eGFR \> 40 ml/min continuously during previous 6 months) * Blood biomarkers indicate immune quiescence (for Allosure this corresponds to dd-cfDNA \< 1%; for Trugraf this corresponds to "TX" signature) * No history of BK viremia in current allograft Exclusion Criteria: * History of biopsy-proven acute rejection * Presence of donor-specific antibodies (at any MFI) * Spot urine protein/creatinine ratio \> 0.5 g/g
