| NCT00455013 | A Phase II Study of Belatacept (BMS-224818) With a Steroid-free Regimen in Subjects Undergoing Kidney Transplantation | PHASE2 | COMPLETED | 93 | — | — | Jul 1, 2007 | Aug 1, 2012 | Jun 9, 2014 | 17 | United States, Italy +1 |
AR is clinicopathological event requiring clinical evidence and biopsy confirmation by central pathologist. One or more conditions were met and a renal biopsy revealed histologic evidence of rejection: unexplained rise of serum creatine (SCr) greater than or equal to 25% from baseline plus one or more of the following: unexplained decreased urine output; fever, graft tenderness; SCr that remained elevated 14 days post-transplantation and clinical suspicion of AR; other reason and participant treated for episode. Day 1=transplantation. Banff 97 working classification of kidney transplant pathology: Type I=tubulointerstitial AR without arteritis (IA: interstitial infiltration with \>25% of parenchyma affected and moderate tubulitis with \>4 mononuclear cells/tubular cross section; IB: \>10 mononuclear cells; Type II vascular AR with (IA) intimal arteritis (IIA=mild - moderate; IIB=severe; Type III=severe rejection with transmural arterial changes, necrosis of smooth muscle cells.
