Interventions
- indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO-1) inhibitor — DRUGStudy treatment will be initiated one day prior to kidney transplantation or, for recipients of cadaveric donor organs, on the day of transplantation, and will be administered at a dose of 200 mg once daily for a total duration of 28 days, followed by a safety follow-up phase.
- placebo — DRUGA matching placebo will be administered once daily, initiated one day prior to kidney transplantation or, for recipients of cadaveric donor organs, on the day of transplantation, for a total duration of 28 days, followed by a safety follow-up phase.
Study Details
This clinical study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of an IDO-1 inhibitor in patients receiving a kidney transplant. The study includes individuals who have not previously been infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and who receive a kidney from a donor with prior EBV infection. Participants will receive the IDO-1 inhibitor or placebo in addition to standard medical care and will be monitored for side effects and other safety-related outcomes throughout the study.
