Clinical trials

The GALACTIC Registry study purpose is to validate the Combination Model-score (CM-score) for increased accuracy in the percentage of the positive predictive value (PPV) of allograft rejection results for the GraftAssure (GraftAssureCore and GraftAssureDx) assay. This will also be correlated with the biopsy yield and treatment decisions. The GraftAssure assay is a diagnostic test intended for the quantitative measurement of dd-cfDNA in plasma from kidney transplant recipients. The test is minimally invasive, and is intended to be used in conjunction with standard clinical assessment and other laboratory findings as an aid in the detection of allograft rejection.

The goal of this observational study is to learn if the donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) test can assess rejection in kidney transplant recipients. Participants will have blood and urine collected at their study visit. Researchers will compare results of the GraftAssureDx to rejection detected by standard-of-care graft biopsies.
