About the study

This study will determine whether a preparatory regimen including total lymphoid irradiation (TLI), total body irradiation (TBI), anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) and infusion of the donor hematopoietic stem cells when given along with recipient regulatory T cells (Tregs) will allow for eventual discontinuation of anti-rejection drugs after living donor kidney transplantation.
