Summary

This trial is testing whether reducing immunosuppression drugs for a brief period may improve the effectiveness of a third dose of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine in kidney transplant recipients, as well as assessing the safety of reducing immunosuppression before and after vaccination.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for kidney transplant recipients who have had a low response to COVID-19 vaccines, measured by antibody tests. They must be on specific immunosuppressive drugs and at least 6 months post-transplant. Participants need to consent to the study.
What is being tested?
The study is testing if reducing doses of certain immunosuppressant drugs can improve the body's immune response to an additional dose of a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine in those who've had weak responses previously.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include increased risk of transplant rejection or infection due to reduced immunosuppression. The exact side effects will depend on how each individual reacts to changes in their medication.
