Study ID
NCT07385651
Status
Recruiting

Conditions

  • Chronic Kidney Disease (Stages 4 and 5)
  • End Stage Chronic Renal Failure
  • Kidney Transplantation Recipients

Eligibility Criteria

Sex
ALL
Age
18 Years - N/A
Healthy Volunteers
Not accepted

Interventions

  • 10˚C deceased donor kidney storage using Traferox XPort — DEVICE
    Deceased donor kidneys will be stored using the Traferox XPort device to maintain an organ temperature of 10˚C during storage and transport until the time of transplant

Study Details

The goal of this clinical trial is to test how storage temperature of deceased donor kidneys affects kidney function after transplant in adult patients receiving a kidney transplant. The main question it aims to answer is: • Do patients that receive a kidney transplant stored at 10 °C have improved post-transplant kidney function? Researchers will compare patients who receive kidneys stored at 10 °C versus kidneys stored at 4°C (on ice, i.e. conventional storage) to see if kidneys stored at 10 °C have improved function. Participants will: * Be made aware of and consent to receive a kidney transplant that had been stored at 10 °C * Have their urine collected 24 hours after surgery to be analyzed for research

Arms

  • Experimental: 10˚C deceased donor kidney storage
    Deceased donor kidneys from participating organ procurement organizations (OPO) will be procured per OPO routine clinical practice and then stored at 10˚C in dedicated temperature controlled coolers until transplant at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. Donor kidneys will be labeled with the anonymous United Network for Organ Sharing number. The transplant will then proceed per routine clinical practice and usual clinical pathways will be followed. Post operatively, study participants will have their urine collected 24 hours post operatively and analyzed. Routine clinical information will be abstracted from the electronic medical record and used for analysis.
  • No Intervention: Conventional (ice storage) deceased donor kidney storage
    Deceased donor kidneys, not meeting eligibility for the intervention arm, that are accepted for transplant at Vanderbilt University Medical Center will be procured per routine clinical practice and stored conventionally on ice. Donor kidneys will be labeled with the anonymous United Network for Organ Sharing number. The transplant will proceed per routine clinical practice. Usual clinical pathways will be followed. Post operatively, study participants will have their urine collected 24 hours post operatively and analyzed. Routine clinical information will be abstracted from the electronic medical record and used for analysis.
