About this trial

Investigator led, prospective, observational cohort study to detect genomic features which can predict outcomes following kidney transplantation.

1. Determine non-HLA genomic mismatches between donor-recipient pairs which impact kidney allograft survival following transplantation 2. Derive polygenic risk scores on pre-transplant blood and/or kidney biopsy samples which predict kidney allograft dysfunction 3. Derive polygenic risk scores on post-transplant blood and/or kidney biopsy samples which predict kidney allograft dysfunction
