Summary
This study tests whether two drugs, daratumumab and belatacept, can lower immune sensitivity in kidney transplant candidates who are highly sensitized, meaning their bodies reject most donor kidneys. Nineteen participants with very high antibody levels receive the drugs to see if they become compatible with more donors. The goal is to help them get a transplant sooner and reduce the risk of rejection.
