Monument Street, Suite 2-600, Baltimore, MD, 21205 Phone: 410-955-6953; Email: npowe@jhmi.edu; Fax: 410-955-0476 Rates of kidney donation have been largely stagnant for the past 10 years, resulting in large imbalances in numbers of persons on transplant waiting lists and the number of persons receiving kidney transplants. Slow improvement in donation and transplantation rates are exacerbated by ethnic/racial disparities in kidney transplants, in which minorities, particularly African Americans, are far less likely to receive deceased kidney transplants. Although living related kidney donation (LD) offers patients an opportunity to bypass many barriers contributing to disparities in kidney transplantation (e.g. waiting lists and immunological incompatibility issues), African Americans remain less likely to receive living related kidney transplants (LRT), further exacerbating disparities in transplant rates. Recent research demonstrates many ethnic minorities desire kidney transplantation, but rates of patient-physician and patient-family discussions regarding LD/LRT are suboptimal. Compared to Whites, African Americans have also been shown to have disproportionately greater rates of culture-specific concerns (such as mistrust in health care) that could impede them from seeking important medical therapies. It is unknown whether culturally tailored behavioral interventions to enhance patient/family decision-making regarding LD/LRT before the onset of end stage renal disease could improve rates of LD/LRT or could narrow racial disparities in the receipt of transplantation. The primary goal of this proposal is a) to use focus group methodology to develop culturally tailored educational materials for patients/families considering LD/LRT and b) to perform a randomized controlled trial to test the effectiveness of a culturally tailored social-worker led intervention (using established behavioral problem-solving therapeutic techniques) in enhancing rates of family communication, donor evaluations, and transplantation. The substantial experience of our consortium, including the National Kidney Foundation of Maryland and the Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions (Welch Center and the Medical Surgical Transplant Services in the School of Medicine), in the evaluation/ implementation of donor/recipient educational programs as well as the conduct of behavioral, epidemiologic and interventional studies related to donor/recipient health and psychology provides a strong foundation for the conduct of this study.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '70 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\nAge 18 to 70 with stage IV or stage V (non-dialysis dependent) chronic kidney disease\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* No evidence of cancer within 2 years prior to recruitment date\n* No evidence of stage IV congestive heart failure\n* No evidence of end-stage liver disease\n* No evidence of unstable coronary artery disease\n* No evidence of pulmonary hypertension\n* No evidence of severe peripheral vascular disease\n* No history of HIV\n* No chronic (debilitating) infections\n* No prior kidney transplant\n* No prior completion of transplant evaluation process\n* No prior dialysis treatment'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT00932334', 'acronym': 'TALK', 'briefTitle': 'Culturally Sensitive Behavioral Interventions to Enhance Living Kidney Donation / Living Kidney Transplantation', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Johns Hopkins University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Culturally Sensitive Behavioral Interventions to Enhance Living Kidney Donation / Living Kidney Transplantation', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'NA_00006752'}, 'secondaryIdInfos': [{'id': 'R39OT07537'}]}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'TALK Plus', 'description': 'Participants receive and educational video and booklet about living kidney donation and meet with a social worker', 'interventionNames': ['Behavioral: TALK PLUS']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'TALK Standard', 'description': 'Participants receive and educational video and booklet about living kidney donation', 'interventionNames': ['Behavioral: TALK Standard']}, {'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'Usual Care', 'description': 'Participants receive their usual medical care', 'interventionNames': ['Behavioral: Usual Care']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'TALK PLUS', 'type': 'BEHAVIORAL', 'description': 'Participants receive and educational video and booklet about living kidney donation and meet with a social worker', 'armGroupLabels': ['TALK Plus']}, {'name': 'TALK Standard', 'type': 'BEHAVIORAL', 'description': 'Participants receive and educational video and booklet about living kidney donation', 'armGroupLabels': ['TALK Standard']}, {'name': 'Usual Care', 'type': 'BEHAVIORAL', 'description': 'Participants receive their usual care', 'armGroupLabels': ['Usual Care']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Leigh E Boulware, MD,MPH', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Johns Hopkins University'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Johns Hopkins University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
