Brief description of study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TCD601 (siplizumab), an anti-CD2 monoclonal antibody, in combination with a CNI-free regimen of belatacept, mycophenolic acid (MPA) and corticosteroids compared to a standard of care CNI-based regimen of tacrolimus, ATG, MPA and corticosteroids in de novo renal transplant patients.

The rationale for combining siplizumab with belatacept is based on their unique mechanisms of action, which may allow for CNI-avoidance, preserving renal function, and facilitating prophylaxis of acute rejection.
