Summary
This early-phase study tests whether a stem cell infusion from the same donor can allow kidney transplant recipients to safely stop their daily anti-rejection medications. Ten adults with a stable, well-functioning kidney from a matched living donor will receive a conditioning treatment followed by the stem cells. The goal is to see if the body can accept the kidney without lifelong drugs, though ongoing monitoring for rejection is required.
