The main goal of this clinical trial is to determine if an investigational medication called VEL101 is safe, well tolerated, and effective in people receiving a new kidney transplant. Participants will be randomly assigned to 2 different doses of VEL-101 or to tacrolimus, which is standardly used post-transplant to prevent rejection. Participants will be…
This purpose of this study is to understand the interaction between two different medications, tacrolimus and Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir), in patients who have had a kidney transplant and are being treated by their doctor for COVID-19 infection. Tacrolimus is an oral medication that is used standardly in kidney transplant recipients to prevent…
This is a 60-month adaptive to evaluate three siplizumab-based treatment regimens in kidney transplant recipients. The purpose of this research study is to see if the anti-rejection medications that patients normally take after transplant can be reduced or stopped completely by using several medications including the investigational drug siplizumab in the…
Kidney transplant extends life, improves quality of life, and reduces healthcare costs. Unfortunately, there are not enough donated kidneys, so many people who need a transplant spend years on the waiting list. Kidneys from organ donors who have hepatitis C virus (HCV) are often thrown away, but these kidneys work well, and hepatitis C can be cured. The…
The purpose of this study is to determine if an investigational drug called tegoprubart (also known as AT1501) is safe and effective in preventing rejection in patients who are undergoing a kidney transplant for the first time. Participants will be randomly assigned to tegoprubart or standard treatment with tacrolimusat the time of transplant. If you have…
The All of Us Research Program has a simple mission. We want to speed up health research breakthroughs. To do this, we are asking one million people to help us lead the way in discovering better care for all of us. The All of Us Research Program is a large research program. The goal is to help researchers understand more about why people get sick or stay…
This study will test a computer-based behavioral intervention to decrease cocaine use. Those who fail to achieve cocaine abstinence after the first 4 weeks while receiving the behavioral treatment will continue the behavioral treatment and be randomly assigned to one of two groups (one group will receive Adderall-XR (MAS-ER) and the other group will receive…
Kidney transplant patients are at a higher risk for bone fractures compared to the general population. We are doing a clinical trial to examine the effects of 12-months of treatment with denosumab, a monoclonal antibody against RANKL, on bone density and strength as determined by bone imaging and by non-invasive measures of bone activity from blood and…
Subjects who undergo a kidney transplant require long term use of anti-rejection (immunosuppressive)drugs to prevent their body's immune system from attacking and damaging the newly transplanted kidney (rejection).The purpose of this study is to evaluate benefits and risks of two combinations(regimens) of immunosuppressive therapies: Thymoglobulin…
The purpose of this research study is to see if an investigational drug, BB3, is safe and effective forincreasing the amount of urine that a transplanted kidney will produce. An investigational drugis one that is not approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). BB3 is agrowth factor-like drug, which means that it can affect cell…
The study is a two group outpatient study, one group receiving medications (Adderall-XR and topiramate) and one group receiving a placebo (inactive sugar pill). The study is looking at the safety and effectiveness of Adderall-XR (MAS-ER) and topiramate in the treatment of cocaine dependence. It is a 14-week trial that requires patients to attend visits 3…
