NCT ID NCT04877288

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 05, 2026 · Updated 33 times

Summary

This study looks at whether switching teen kidney transplant patients (ages 12-17) from standard anti-rejection drugs to a newer medication called belatacept can help preserve kidney function and improve how consistently they take their medicine. About 102 participants will be randomly assigned to either switch to belatacept or stay on their current regimen. The goal is to see if the switch leads to better kidney health over two years.
