A Phase IIa pilot study in 16 kidney transplant patients confirmed the feasibility of the ex vivo administration of Mirococept at 10 mg/kidney prior to transplantation and showed a trend towards more rapid recovery of graft function compared with control organs. 21 The first EMPIRIKAL Phase II study set out to evaluate the dose and efficacy of Mirococept in reducing DGF rates in deceased donor kidney transplantation. 22 The design was to test a dose range of 5–25 mg in cohorts of 80 patients for each dose with a maximum number of seven cohorts.
