Immunological Tolerance in Patients With Mismatched Kidney Transplants

Plain-language summary
This study seeks to determine if administration of the drug belumosudil (KD025) will be safe and improve transplant tolerance in subjects undergoing combined Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) single haplotype-matched related or 0-3 antigen (at A, B, C, DR) HLA mismatched unrelated living donor kidney and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Inclusion criteria
. Age 18 and older

Receiving an HLA single haplotype-matched related living donor or 0-3 antigen (at A, B, C, DR) HLA mismatched unrelated living donor combined kidney and hematopoietic stem cell transplant (the first six subjects will be HLA single haplotype-matched; the final two subjects may be either HLA single-haplotype-matched or 0-3 antigen (at A, B, C, DR) HLA mismatched)
. Agreement to participate in the study and ability to give informed consent
. Meets institutional criteria for kidney and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Determine impact of treatment regimen on patient and kidney allograft survival
. If a patient is a female of reproductive potential (i.e. no documented absence of ovaries or uterus, history of tubal ligation, or post-menopausal status) patient must be confirmed not pregnancy by a serum or urine pregnancy test and must agree to practice a reliable form of contraception including hormonal treatments, barrier methods or intrauterine device for duration of the study
. Males of reproductive age must consent to use reliable and effective methods to avoid pregnancy
Exclusion criteria
. ABO incompatibility with donor
. Previous solid organ transplant
. Multi-organ transplantation
. Previous treatment with rATG or a known allergy to rabbit proteins
. Previous treatment with belumosudil (KD025)
. History of active malignancy within the past 5 years with the exception of:
. Low risk cancer on active surveillance
. Malignancy treated with curative intent with no known active disease \>2 years before the first dose of study treatment and of low potential risk of recurrence
