Participant Flow

All study subjects were recruited from University of Washington Medical Center's kidney transplant wait list. Patients with a Panel of Reactive Antibodies (PRA)over 50% for 6 months or longer between 18 and 75 year of age were contacted by letter and then by phone to schedule screening visit. Enrollment occured from 4/24/06 to 9/06/07.

Subjects were consented, given a physical exan and laboratory tests including serum virologies current Hepatitis B immunization and Tuberculosis (TB) testing initially. Abnormalities in white or red blood cells, platelets, TB test or signs of infection or evidence of cancer were grounds for exclusion.

9 Participant

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: From enrollment to month 12.

Population: Forty five subjects were screened, of these 37 received MMF.

The number of infections while on-study up to month 12. Subjects who's PRA decreased by 10% at month 8 and who went on to the Mycophenolate mofetil + Rituximab study were followed to month 8. Those subjects who stayed on the Mycophenolate mon-therapy study were observed for infection over 12 months or until they seperated from the study.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Enrollment to month 8 or month 12 post enrollment.

The number of kidney transplants up to month 12. Subjects who's PRA decreased by 10% at month 8 and who went on to the Mycophenolate mofetil + Rituximab study were followed to month 8. Those subjects who stayed on the Mycophenolate mon-therapy study were observed for infection over 12 months or until they seperated from the study.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Enrollment to month 12.

The number of subjects with adverse hematologic effects with MMF while on-study. Subjects who's PRA decreased by 10% at month 8 and who went on to the Mycophenolate mofetil + Rituximab study were followed to month 8. Those subjects who stayed on the Mycophenolate mon-therapy study were observed for hematologic effects up to 12 months.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Number of Transplants with a Negative Crossmatch.

The number negative crossmatch transplants up to month 12. Positivie crossmatch transplant carries a higher risk for rejection. Subjects who's PRA decreased by 10% at month 8 and who went on to the Mycophenolate mofetil + Rituximab study were followed to month 8. Those subjects who stayed on the Mycophenolate mon-therapy study were observed for negative crossmatch transplants to 12 months.
