GraftAssure Lowering Allograft rejeCTIon by Combination- (GALACTIC) Trial: A Multi-Center Registry Study Assessing Transplanted Kidney Status
Insight Molecular Diagnostics
Summary
The GALACTIC Registry study purpose is to validate the Combination Model-score (CM-score) for increased accuracy in the percentage of the positive predictive value (PPV) of allograft rejection results for the GraftAssure (GraftAssureCore and GraftAssureDx) assay. This will also be correlated with the biopsy yield and treatment decisions. The GraftAssure assay is a diagnostic test intended for the quantitative measurement of dd-cfDNA in plasma from kidney transplant recipients. The test is minimally invasive, and is intended to be used in conjunction with standard clinical assessment and other laboratory findings as an aid in the detection of allograft rejection.
Description
This is a prospective, multi-center, longitudinal, registry study. The study will be conducted in two parts: Part 1: GraftAssureCore assay (Laboratory-Developed Test) Blood samples will be obtained by the site, or via contracted phlebotomy or laboratory services, and shipped to iMDx for centralized GraftAssure testing. Results will be reported to the study site. Part 2: GraftAssureDx assay (On-Site Testing at study site) Sites will be trained to perform on-site GraftAssure testing in-house with iMDx permission, post-FDA authorization.
