The study will assess the IdeS efficacy in creating a negative crossmatch test (XM) in patients who exhibit donor specific antibodies (DSA) and have a positive crossmatch test to their available live or deceased donors. The first 3 patients in this study will receive a kidney from a deceased donor. The study will primarily examine the efficacy of IdeS in creating a negative XM. The first 3 patients will receive one dose of 0.25 mg/kg BW IdeS on study day 0. If it is considered safe and negative crossmatch test is not achieved after the first dose, an additional IdeS infusion can be given within 2 days of the first infusion. The dose schedule may be increased to 0.5 mg/kg BW given once or twice after the first 3 patients have been tested. The decision to escalate the dose will be done after evaluation of safety and efficacy.

You may be eligible if
Patients on the kidney transplant waitlist who have previously undergone desensitization unsuccessfully or in whom effective desensitization will be highly unlikely. The breadth and strength of sensitization will predict an extremely low likelihood of successful desensitization or kidney paired donation.
Patients with a live or deceased donor with a positive crossmatch test.
You may not be if
Previous treatment with IdeS
Previous high dose IVIg treatment (2 g/kg BW) within 28 days prior to IdeS treatment
