Acerca de la investigación
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the efficacy and safety of imlifidase in highly sensitized paediatric patients, 1-17 years old, with end stage renal disease (ESRD).
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Does imlifidase treatment result in crossmatch conversion that enables transplantation?
- How is the function of the transplanted kidney?
The participants will be hospitalised in accordance with the normal routines for transplanted patients. The patients will receive medication to prevent rejection of the donor kidney, and because such treatment make the body more vulnerable medications to prevent infections.
Leer la descripción completa
After being informed about the study and potential risks, all patients giving written informed consent will undergo pre-screening to determine eligibility for study entry.
The trial will include highly sensitised ESRD paediatric patients (1-17 years). The patients have previously undergone desensitization unsuccessfully or have an anti-HLA antibody status deemed too difficult to make a successful desensitization using other experimental methods.
A screening visit will take place when an organ offer has been placed for a final check of the patients' eligibility for study participation.
All patients included in the trial will be desensitized with imlifidase to convert the positive XM to negative and then transplanted with either a kidney from a deceased donor (DD) or a living donor (LD).
Patients will be hospitalised in accordance with the normal routines for transplanted patients at each clinic.
Following transplantation, the patients will receive induction therapies, rejection prophylaxis, and maintenance immunosuppressive therapies.
The patients will be closely monitored for any signs of antibody-mediated rejections (AMRs).
The duration of the interventional trial period after an organ has been offered will be 6 months for each patient. The trial includes a follow-up part to collect long-term efficacy and safety data up to 5 years after the transplantation.

5. Ongoing serious infections
6. Present, or history of, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), or known familial history of TTP

9. ABO blood group incompatible transplantations (A2 and A2B kidneys will not be accepted for B recipients)
10. Any other reason that, in the view of the investigator, precludes transplantation
11. Breast feeding or pregnancy, if applicable
12. Woman of fertile age and sexually active without adequate contraceptive measures to avoid pregnancy during the interventional trial period (i.e. up to 6 months after transplantation)
13. Suspicion of Covid-19 infection or positive severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) test
14. Positive serology for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)
15. Clinical signs of hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), or Epstein Barr virus (EBV) infection
16. Donor with positive serology for HIV, HBV, HCV or CMV to a patient with negative serology (mismatch serology). Mismatch serology for EBV in accordance with center specific standard procedures for transplantation of EBV negative recipients and at investigator's discretion.
17. Clinically relevant active infection(s) as judged by the investigator
18. Tuberculosis or history of tuberculosis
19. Use of other investigational agents within 5 terminal elimination half-lives prior to the transplantation
20. Contemporaneous participation in medical device studies
21. Known mental incapacity or language barriers precluding patients'/parents'/legal guardians' adequate understanding of the informed consent information and the trial activities
22. Inability by the judgement of the investigator to participate in the trial for any other reason

Imlifidase
Imlifidase is administered intravenously as one infusion of 0.25 mg/kg over 15 minutes within 24 hours prior to transplantation.
Drug: Imlifidase
Imlifidase DRUG
Imlifidase is an immunoglobulin G (IgG)-degrading enzyme of Streptococcus pyogenes that is highly selective towards IgG. The cleavage of IgG generates one F(ab')2- and one homodimeric Fc-fragment and efficiently neutralizes Fc-mediated activities of IgG.

Medidas principales
Proportion of patients with conversion of a positive crossmatch test to negative within 24 hours after start of imlifidase treatment
Plazo: From start of imlifidase administration to 24 hours
Immunoglobulins (IgG) including donor specific antibodies (DSAs) are rapidly and efficiently cleaved by imlifidase. A conversion of a positive to a negative XM will enable transplantation.
