简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine if Eculizumab is safe and effective in the prevention of delayed graft function following deceased donor kidney transplantation.
详细描述
Based on experimental data and supportive observations in humans associating complement gene upregulation with ischemic reperfusion injury, it is hypothesized that C5 cleavage is a key step in the pathogenesis of ischemic reperfusion injury following transplantation. It is further hypothesized that eculizumab, an antibody that blocks C5 cleavage in humans will be an effective prophylactic agent to prevent ischemic reperfusion injury in high risk recipients. To test this hypothesis, this study is a pilot prospective, randomized study to test the efficacy of eculizumab vs. placebo given once at the time of transplantation in preventing delayed graft function in first adult recipients of deceased donor kidneys.

结局指标
主要结局
Composite of Delayed Graft Function and Slow Graft Function
时间窗: Up to 6 months
Delayed Graft Function defined as follows: 1. A need for at least one dialysis treatment during the first 7 days after transplantation (not including a single session for hyperkalemia or hypervolemia in the first 48 hours) 2. A less than or equal to 50% reduction in serum creatinine in the first 24 hours post-transplantation 3. A serum creatinine reduction ratio \< 30% at 48 hours post-transplantation Slow Graft Function Defined as Follows: A functioning graft at Day 5 Post-transplantation with a serum creatinine \> 3 mg/dL and no need for dialysis
