New hope for stuck on the transplant waitlist

NCT ID NCT05017545

Summary

This study is testing whether two drugs, carfilzomib and belatacept, can help people who have been waiting a very long time for a kidney transplant. These patients have immune systems that attack most donor kidneys, making it extremely hard to find a match. The goal is to see if this drug combination can safely lower those immune attacks, making more donor kidneys compatible and shortening the wait.
