The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of AZD0120 in highly sensitized adult participants with ESKD awaiting kidney transplant-who, as assessed by investigators, are improbable desensitization through conventional treatments (e.g., plasmapheresis and immunoadsorption)- with or without living donors.
This is a single-arm, open-label, early-phase clinical study of AZD0120, a dual-directed CD19/BCMA CAR-T therapy in highly sensitized adult participants with ESKD awaiting kidney transplant. This study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of AZD0120 in highly sensitized adult participants with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) awaiting kidney transplantation-who, as assessed by investigators, are improbable desensitization through conventional treatments (e.g., plasmapheresis and immunoadsorption)-with the participants divided into Cohort 1 (with living donors) and Cohort 2 (without living donors).

The incidence of treatment-related adverse events AE/SAE
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention.A SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose, meets one or more of the criteria listed:Results in death and life-threatening.
Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 3 years
