The Use of Peri-Operative Intravenous Estrogen for the Mitigation of Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in the Setting of Renal Transplantation
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Conjugated Estrogen and Normal saline for Ischemia Reperfusion Injury. Active but no longer recruiting, targeting 30 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Ischemia perfusion injury (IRI) is a major cause of organ injury during kidney transplantation. Currently there are no treatments for IRI other than dialysis. Preliminary studies in female mice have found protection from IRI when given short term estrogen supplements. This study will look at the effect of intravenous estrogen given peri-operatively to reduce the effect of IRI in female kidney transplant recipients.

Interventions
Dosing of conjugated estrogen will be given pre kidney transplant procedure and twice after reperfusion of the transplanted kidney.
Dosing of normal saline will be given pre kidney transplant procedure and twice after reperfusion of the transplanted kidney.
