Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TX200-TR101 and its effects on the donated kidney in living donor kidney transplant recipients. TX200-TR101 is a product made from a kidney transplant recipient's own immune cells, which are genetically modified and designed to help the transplant recipient's body accept their donated kidney and prevent their immune system from rejecting it.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Kidney Transplant Rejection End Stage Renal Disease Biological: TX200-TR101 Phase 1 Phase 2

Detailed Description:

This is a multicentre, first-in-human, open-label, single ascending dose, dose-ranging study of autologous, chimeric antigen receptor T regulatory cells (CAR-Treg) in HLA-A2 mismatched living donor kidney transplant recipients, with a control cohort of mismatched kidney transplant recipients of similar immunological risk.The aim is for the CAR-Tregs to recognise the HLA-A2 molecule present on the donated kidney and subsequently induce and maintain immunological tolerance to the organ.

The study requires three different types of participants - transplant recipients who will receive the study treatment TX200-TR101; control participants, who are transplant recipients who will not receive the study treatment; and transplant donors, who will donate their kidney to the transplant recipients.

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 42 participants
Allocation: Non-Randomized
Intervention Model: Sequential Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Prevention
Official Title: Multicentre Open-Label Single Ascending Dose Dose-Ranging Phase I/IIa Study to Evaluate Safety and Tolerability of an Autologous Antigen-Specific Chimeric Antigen Receptor TRegulatory Cell Therapy in Living Donor Renal Transplant Recipients
Actual Study Start Date : March 17, 2021
Estimated Primary Completion Date : November 13, 2024
Estimated Study Completion Date : March 4, 2026


Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Treatment group
Subjects undergo kidney transplant as per planned standard of care and are administered study drug post transplantation, up to 15 subjects.
Biological: TX200-TR101
TX200-TR101 is an autologous gene therapy medicinal product composed of Treg cells (CD4+/CD45RA+/CD25+/CD127low/neg) that have been ex vivo expanded and transduced with a lentiviral vector encoding for a CAR to recognize HLA-A*02. Treatment will be given via an IV infusion at a pre-defined timepoint several weeks after transplant. Three, single ascending dose cohorts of TX200-TR101 are planned and an additional expansion cohort.
Other Name: CAR-Tregs

No Intervention: Control group and Transplant donors

Control group: Subjects undergo kidney transplant as per planned standard of care with no study drug administered, up to 6 subjects.

Transplant donors: Transplant donors for each subject in the treatment and control groups, up to 21 subjects.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Safety and Tolerability [ Time Frame: 28 days post infusion ]
    Safety and tolerability of TX200-TR101 infusion evaluated by incidence and grade of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), including serious adverse events (SAEs) according to CTCAE V5.0.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Acute graft related outcomes [ Time Frame: Day of infusion through to Week 84 ]
    Incidence of biopsy confirmed acute rejection according to the Banff classification criteria

  2. Long-term safety [ Time Frame: Day of infusion through to Week 84 ]
    Number of transplant recipient subjects with TEAEs, including SAEs, as assessed by CTCAE v5.0

  3. Immunosuppression [ Time Frame: Day of infusion through to Week 84 ]
    Ability to reduce immunosuppression as measured by the proportion of subjects receiving tacrolimus monotherapy at Week 84

  4. Graft localization [ Time Frame: Day of infusion through to Week 84 ]
    Graft localization of TX200-TR101 cells as measured by the presence of CD4+ CAR+ cells in the renal transplant biopsy

  5. Chronic graft related outcomes [ Time Frame: Day of infusion through to Week 84 ]
    Chronic graft dysfunction as measured by estimated glomerular filtration rate

  6. Chronic graft related outcomes [ Time Frame: Day of infusion through to Week 84 ]
    Incidence of chronic graft rejection according to the Banff criteria for chronic rejection
