Study Summary

Our group recently reported that tocilizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody against the IL-6 receptor, may be effective when administered monthly to patients with chronic antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR). The current paradigm to assess response to therapy involves serial monitoring for donor-specific antibodies, measurement of kidney function with creatinine, and periodic kidney transplant biopsies to survey for histologic findings indicative of ongoing ABMR. A new non-invasive blood test, donor-derived cell-free DNA (Allosure) has recently reported to have a high degree of discrimination for rejection and may be used to assess the likelihood of rejection. It has not been tested to see if it can be used to assess treatment response for rejection. This study will assess longitudinal changes in donor-derived cell-free DNA measurements in response to monthly therapy with tocilizumab for chronic ABMR and correlate these measurements to histologic changes on a follow-up kidney transplant biopsy.
