Sponsor

Sanofi

Enrollment

526 participants

Start Date

Mar 13, 2026

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The purpose of this open-label, randomized, active-comparator-controlled study is to determine the efficacy and safety of frexalimab subcutaneous administrations up to 5 years compared to tacrolimus capsules in adults undergoing kidney transplantation. Participants aged 18 to 70 years who have low-to-moderate immunologic risk of graft rejection and receive their first kidney transplant are eligible if they meet all inclusion and no exclusion criteria. Study details include: * The study and treatment duration will be up to approximately 5 years. * The number of visits will be approximately 38.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 YearsMax Age: 70 Years

Inclusion Criteria2

  • Participants who are scheduled to receive their first kidney transplant from a living or deceased donor.
  • Participants with low to moderate immunological risk.

Exclusion Criteria8

  • Deceased donor kidney graft qualified as expanded criteria donor or donor after cardiac death.
  • Positive T or B cell crossmatch, or positive virtual crossmatch per local practice at screening.
  • Participants receiving a kidney graft from HLA-identical living-related donors, or have current or previous solid organ, cell, or multi-organ transplantation, or paired kidney transplantation.
  • Participants whose primary causes of ESKD are idiopathic FSGS, C3 glomerulopathy, lupus nephritis, or thrombotic microangiopathy
  • Evidence of active or latent TB, HIV, HBV or HCV infection.
  • Participants who have known genetically predisposed thrombophilia, have history of thromboembolic events, or who need long-term anti-coagulation therapy.
  • Participants who have severe medical co-morbidities, active infection, or severely limited life expectancy due to underlying medical conditions that are generally precluded from kidney transplant.
  • The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a participant's potential participation in a clinical trial.
