This study offers kidney transplant patients with antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) the chance to receive felzartamab for up to 4 more years. AMR occurs when the immune system attacks the new kidney. The main goal is to check long-term safety and monitor kidney health through bio…

This trial tests whether implanting a thin disc of donor cornea tissue — called a stromal lenticule — can improve corneal transparency and vision in people with herpetic stromal keratitis, a herpes infection that scars the cornea. The lenticule contains stem cells and other livin…

This trial tests a two-part approach for people with corneal scarring caused by adenoviral keratitis. Surgeons first remove the scarred tissue using a laser technique called SMILE, then implant a fresh, clear corneal lenticule of the same size into the pocket. Patients also recei…

This study aimed to see if a soft membrane placed on the eye could diagnose microbial keratitis (a serious eye infection) better and more comfortably than the standard scrape test. Researchers planned to compare the two methods in adults with new corneal infections. However, the …
