Gene hunt aims to predict kidney transplant survival

NCT ID NCT03615235

Summary

This study aims to understand how variations in a specific gene called APOL1 affect the long-term success of kidney transplants and the health of living kidney donors. It will enroll 5,000 participants, focusing on people of recent African ancestry who are more likely to have these gene variants. Researchers will collect DNA samples to see if these gene changes are linked to how well a transplanted kidney works over time or if they affect a donor's remaining kidney health.
