Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Demonstrate that at least one of the sotrastaurin + tacrolimus treatment arms is non-inferior to the active control regimen with respect to composite efficacy failure (treated BPAR of grade IA or higher, graft loss, death or lost to follow up).
Month 6

Secondary Endpoints

Evaluate renal allograft function post-transplantation (estimated GFR by MDRD equation; estimated creatinine clearance by Cockroft-Gault formula; serum creatinine)
Months 6, 12, 24, and 36
Demonstrate that at least one of the sotrastaurin + tacrolimus treatment arms is non-inferior to the active control regimen with respect to composite efficacy failure (treated BPAR of grade IA or higher, graft loss, death or lost to follow up).
Months 12, 24, and 36
Evaluate individual components of the composite efficacy endpoint (treated BPAR, severity of acute rejections by Banff 2007 diagnostic category).
Months 6, 12, 24, and 36

Frequently asked questions about sotrastaurin

What is sotrastaurin used for?

Sotrastaurin was studied for use in renal transplantation, specifically to prevent organ rejection in kidney transplant recipients. It was evaluated in combination with tacrolimus and standard of care medications. The drug is an investigational small molecule and has not been approved for any indication.

What does sotrastaurin target?

Sotrastaurin targets protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms, specifically PRKD3, PRKCI, PRKCA, PRKCG, PRKCD, and PRKCB. It acts as an inhibitor of these kinases. This mechanism is intended to suppress immune responses involved in transplant rejection.

Who is developing sotrastaurin?

Sotrastaurin is being developed by Novartis AG, which trades under the ticker NVS. Novartis sponsored the clinical trial evaluating the drug in renal transplantation.

What phase is sotrastaurin in?

Sotrastaurin is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational drug and has not been approved by the FDA or any regulatory agency. The Phase 2 trial has been completed.

What clinical trials is sotrastaurin in?

Sotrastaurin was evaluated in a single Phase 2 clinical trial, NCT01064791, titled "Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of Sotrastaurin Combined With Tacrolimus vs. a Mycophenolic Acid-tacrolimus Regimen in Renal Transplant Patients." The trial enrolled 298 participants and is completed.
