Antibody clues could predict kidney transplant outcomes
NCT ID NCT07374484
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how levels of a specific antibody (AT1R-Ab) change before and after kidney transplantation in 241 patients. Researchers monitored these antibodies over one year to see if they relate to kidney function and graft survival. The goal is to find better ways to predict transplant success and improve decision-making for doctors.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this research could help doctors better predict kidney transplant success and personalize care for recipients.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It cannot prove cause and effect, and results may not apply to all transplant patients.

Who is studied
This study was conducted at tertiary academic transplant center in South Korea and included kidney transplant recipients between 2016 and 2022. Eligible patients were those who had serum samples collected at pre-transplant and at 2 weeks, 3 months, and 1-year post-transplant, with a minimum follow-up of 1 year. Exclusion criteria were simultaneous multi-organ transplantation and age younger than 18 years. Among the 1,118 patients who underwent kidney transplantation during this period, 768 were excluded because they did not have at least four serum samples stored in the Seoul National University Hospital Biobank within 1 year after transplantation. Of the remaining 350 patients with four or more stored samples, 106 were excluded due to the absence of required time-point samples (pre-transplant and 2-week, 3-month, and 1-year post-transplant), and an additional 3 patients were excluded due to missing data for studied parameters. Consequently, a total of 241 patients were included.
