ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how a specific biological process called inflammasome activation might be linked to frailty in older adults who are candidates for kidney transplantation. Frailty is a condition that can make people more vulnerable to complications after surgery, and researchers want to understand if inflammation plays a role in this. By studying older patients with chronic kidney failure, the trial hopes to find out if there is a connection between frailty and inflammation, which could help improve care for these patients.

To be eligible for this study, participants need to be at least 70 years old and currently being evaluated for kidney transplantation. They should not have any major health issues that would prevent them from participating and must provide written consent to join the study. Participants can expect to undergo some assessments related to their health and frailty during the trial. It’s important to note that this study is not yet recruiting participants, so those interested will need to wait for the enrollment to begin.
