Summary

This study tests a drug called pegcetacoplan in 320 adults who are getting a kidney transplant from a deceased donor and are at high risk for delayed graft function (when the kidney takes a while to start working). Participants receive either the drug or a placebo after surgery. The goal is to see if the drug helps the kidney work sooner and reduces the need for dialysis.
