Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To assess the rate of sustained virologic resonse (SVR) in all treated renal transplant patients at week 12 after the end of treatment. ;Secondary Objective: The proportion of renal transplant patients with a sustained virologic response (HCV-RNA levels <15IU/ml) at week 4 and 24 after the end of treatment. Patient/graft survival at week 12 and 24 after the end of treatment Acute Rejection including incidence, severity, type, treatment including time to event analyses Renal Function as determined by serum creatinine, calculated glomerular filtration rate (cGFR; CKD-EPI formula), the cGFR slope and CKD stages at week 12 and 24 after the end of treatment Change of C0 levels and daily dosing of Calcineurin-Inhibitors Qualitiy TOF urin analysis of drug metabolism Safety including adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs (SAEs), events of special interest: infections, opportunistic infections, malignancies, PTLDs, clinically significant changes in vital signs, clinically significant laboratory test abnormalities including proteinuria Tolerability of treatment regimen including treatment failures and reason for treatment failures ;Primary end point(s): The proportion of renal transplant patients with a sustained virologic response (HCV-RNA levels <15IU/ml) at week 12 after the end of treatment. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 12 weeks after end of therapy | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. The proportion of renal transplant patients with a sustained virologic response (HCV-RNA levels <15IU/ml) at week 4 and 24 after the end of treatment. 2. Patient and graft survival at week 12 and 24 after the end of treatment 3. Acute Rejection (BPAR and treated), including incidence, severity (according to Banff grades), type (T-cell mediated, and antibody mediated), treatment (steroid resistant rejection, antibody treated rejection, rejection requiring conversion of baseline immunosuppressant) including time to event analyses 4. Renal Function as determined by serum creatinine, calculated glomerular filtration rate (cGFR) according to the CKD-EPI formula, the cGFR slope and different CKD stages at week 12 and 24 after the end of treatment 5. Change of C0 levels and daily dosing of Calcineurin-Inhibitors 6. Qualitiy TOF urin analysis of drug metabolism 7. Proportion of Safety events of the treatment regimen including adverse events (AEs) and serious AEs (SAEs), events of special interest: infections, opportunistic infections, malignancies, PTLDs, clinically significant changes in vital signs, clinically significant laboratory test abnormalities including proteinuria 8. Proportion of patients with treatment failures (virus breakthrough and relapse) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: week 4, 12, 24 after treatment | — |
