Study Summary

This is a pilot randomized controlled trial examining the feasibility of conducting a large scale randomized controlled trial of belatacept-based immunosuppression in lung transplantation. This pilot study will enroll 40 lung transplant recipients and randomize them to belatacept-based immunosuppression or standard of care. The primary endpoint of the study is the development of donor-specific HLA antibodies after transplantation. All study participants will be followed for a minimum of 12 months after transplantation.

Primary Outcome

The Outcome Measure is a composite primary endpoint of the development of donor-specific HLA antibodies, re-transplantation, or death. Testing for donor-specifc HLA antibodies was performed at study-specified time points using the single antigen bead assay at the study core lab. Donor-specific HLA antibodies were defined as reactivity with a mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) ≥ 2,000.

Interventions
