Official title
A Seamless Phase 2/3 Randomized, Open-label Study to Investigate Efficacy and Safety of Frexalimab Versus Tacrolimus in Adult Kidney Transplant Recipients
Overview
The purpose of this open-label, randomized, active-comparator-controlled study is to determine the efficacy and safety of frexalimab subcutaneous administrations up to 5 years compared to tacrolimus capsules in adults undergoing kidney transplantation. Participants aged 18 to 70 years who have low-to-moderate immunologic risk of graft rejection and receive their first kidney transplant are eligible if they meet all inclusion and no exclusion criteria. Study details include: * The study and treatment duration will be up to approximately 5 years. * The number of visits will be approximately 38.

Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- Participants who are scheduled to receive their first kidney transplant from a living or deceased donor.
- Participants with low to moderate immunological risk.
Exclusion criteria
- Deceased donor kidney graft qualified as expanded criteria donor or donor after cardiac death.
- Positive T or B cell crossmatch, or positive virtual crossmatch per local practice at screening.
- Participants receiving a kidney graft from HLA-identical living-related donors, or have current or previous solid organ, cell, or multi-organ transplantation, or paired kidney transplantation.
- Participants whose primary causes of ESKD are idiopathic FSGS, C3 glomerulopathy, lupus nephritis, or thrombotic microangiopathy
- Evidence of active or latent TB, HIV, HBV or HCV infection.
- Participants who have known genetically predisposed thrombophilia, have history of thromboembolic events, or who need long-term anti-coagulation therapy.
- Participants who have severe medical co-morbidities, active infection, or severely limited life expectancy due to underlying medical conditions that are generally precluded from kidney transplant.
