Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The mismatch between organ supply and demand results in the deaths of thousands of Americans each year. Our research group aims to solve this unmitigated health care crisis by translating advances in xenotransplantation to humans and expanding organ supply in a sustainable fashion using genetically modified pigs as a source of organs. We propose here a phase I clinical trial of porcine kidney xenotransplantation into 20 people with end-stage kidney disease. Source donor animals are pigs with 10 gene edits (10-GE) which attenuate immunologic harm to the kidney xenograft. 10-GE pigs are housed in a designated pathogen-free facility within 30 minutes of the transplantation center. Xenotransplantation procedures follow conventional practices currently employed in allotransplantation and comply with multiple regulatory standards to ensure ethical treatment of research subjects and source animals. Recruitment and xenotransplantation will occur over 5 years with study follow-up extending 1 year after xenotransplantation. Primary outcome variables surround patient safety, such as patient survival and the rate of zoonotic disease transmission. Secondary outcome variables include commonly used metrics of graft survival and function.
