Safety and Tolerability of IDO-1 Inhibition in the Prevention of EBV-related Pathology in EBV Negative Kidney Transplant Recipients Receiving an Organ From EBV Positive Donors

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.

This clinical study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and tolerability of an IDO-1 inhibitor in patients receiving a kidney transplant. The study population includes individuals who are Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) seronegative and receive a kidney from an EBV-seropositive donor, a group at increased risk for EBV-related complications following transplantation. Kidney transplantation requires substantial immunosuppression to maintain graft function. While necessary, this immunosuppression increases susceptibility to infections, including EBV, which may lead to serious clinical consequences in immunocompromised individuals. In this study, participants will receive the IDO-1 inhibitor or placebo in addition to standard-of-care immunosuppressive therapy. Study treatment will be initiated prior to kidney transplantation or on the day of transplantation, depending on donor availability, and will be administered for a defined treatment period, followed by a safety follow-up phase. The primary objective of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of the IDO-1 inhibitor in kidney transplant recipients, including the incidence of adverse events and clinically relevant laboratory abnormalities.
