Experimental Treatment
Group I: Belatacept+VIB4920Experimental Treatment4 Interventions
Participants will be admitted to the transplant center for the administration of VIB4920 and belatacept (with Thymoglobulin and corticosteroids) and will be discharged on Day 3/4 at the discretion of the investigator. Participants will return to the study center to receive study drugs (VIB4920 and /or belatacept) weekly for 2 visits, then every 2 weeks for 5 visits, and then monthly for 9 visits for safety monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What are the various locations where this experiment can be conducted?

"This research is accepting participants at four seperate locations, based in Dallas, Los Angeles and Durham. To reduce the burden of travel for all involved, it's recommended that you select the centre nearest to your residence when applying."

Answered by AI

To what degree is VIB4920 hazardous to human health?

"Based on the data our team has reviewed, VIB4920 is estimated to have a safety level of 2. This Phase 2 trial provides evidence that it's safe but not necessarily effective in treating conditions."

Answered by AI

Who is eligible to be involved in this medical research experiment?

"This clinical trial is recruiting 20 individuals who have experienced organ transplant rejection, ranging from 18 to 70 years old. The primary recruitment criteria are as follows: recipients of a first renal transplant from standard dead or living donors; negative cross-match testing results; and agreement by both sexes to abide by contraceptive protocols outlined in the study."

Answered by AI

How many participants are being admitted to this clinical examination?

"At the moment, this trial is not accepting patient applications. Initially posted on October 30th 2019 and last modified on August 11th 2022, currently individuals seeking clinical trials have 123 other studies to choose from if they are looking for rejection or transplant treatments; there are also 12 ongoing investigations that require VIB4920 participants."

Answered by AI

Is the recruitment phase of this clinical trial still ongoing?

"The clinical trial referenced is no longer actively recruiting, as confirmed from the information found on clinicaltrials.gov. The research was first posted 10/30/2019 and last amended 8/11/2022 - although other trials are still looking for patients to join their studies."

Answered by AI

Has research been conducted on the efficacy of VIB4920 in past studies?

"VIB4920 was initially studied at Duke University Health System in 2018, with 33 trials completed since. Currently, 12 medical studies are accepting participants and most of them are located around Dallas, Texas."

Answered by AI

Has there ever been a comparable experiment before this one?

"Currently, 12 clinical trials for VIB4920 are ongoing in various metropolitan areas throughout 8 countries. Rho Federal Systems Division Inc first initiated a Phase 1 trial with 6 patients back in 2018; since then, an additional 33 studies have been conducted."

Answered by AI

Is the age range for this experiment encompassing those aged 80 or above?
