What this Trial Is About

Researchers are maintaining a biobank of human samples from kidney transplant donors and recipients to support future research projects. This observational study collects clinical data and biological specimens from individuals undergoing renal transplantation at the University Hospitals Leuven. The purpose is to enable translational research aimed at improving understanding and outcomes related to kidney failure and transplantation. The collected samples include biopsy tissue, peripheral blood, and urine from kidney transplant recipients and donors. These materials are stored for undefined future studies and translational research. All new kidney transplant recipients at the hospital are included as part of this collection effort. Participants provide samples and clinical information, which are prospectively gathered and stored. Researchers will monitor kidney transplant survival over an extended period, up to 50 years after transplantation. The study began in March 2004 and continues to collect data and samples to support long-term research goals related to kidney failure and transplantation outcomes.
