Kidney transplant study aims to find safer drug combo
NCT ID NCT06374095
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 75 kidney transplant patients to compare two different drug combinations given right after transplant. One group gets a single dose of RATG plus basiliximab, while the other gets seven doses of RATG plus basiliximab. The goal is to see which approach causes fewer side effects like low platelet or white blood cell counts.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Basiliximab and RATG (Thymoglobulin)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors choose a safer drug combination for kidney transplant patients, reducing side effects like low blood cell counts.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, observational study with only 75 patients, so results may not apply to everyone. It compares existing drugs, not a new breakthrough.
