Sensitized Lung Candidates Experience Reduced Access to Donor Organs
1UNOS, Richmond, VA, 2UNOS, Richmnd, VA
*Purpose: Most studies of sensitization in transplant candidates have focused on kidney candidates, and unacceptable antigens (UAs) for non-kidney candidates are believed to be underreported.…2021 American Transplant Congress
HLA Haplotype Frequency and Racial Disparities in Access to Transplant Among Highly Sensitized Kidney Transplant Candidates
*Purpose: Despite implementation of the Kidney Allocation System (KAS) which prioritizes sensitized patients, sensitized Black individuals are less likely to receive a transplant than non-Black…2020 American Transplant Congress
Assessment of Infectious Complications Following ABO-Blood Group Incompatible Renal Transplant
*Purpose: In response to the ongoing organ shortage, ABO-incompatible (ABOi) renal transplant (RT) provides an alternative option for patients with end-stage kidney disease. Literature suggests…2020 American Transplant Congress
High PRA Increases Rejection but Does Not Worsen Renal Function in the First Year Post Kidney Transplant with Alemtuzumab Induction
Ochsner Medical Center, New Orleans, LA
*Purpose: Sensitization is an important immunologic risk factor considered in renal allograft allocation and influences immunosuppression. Unfortunately, there is a lack of consensus regarding the…2020 American Transplant Congress
Anti-T Lymphocyte Immunoglobulins versus Basiliximab in Highly Sensitized Kidney-Transplant Patients without Preformed DSAs: The Satir Study
*Purpose: Two prospective studies that were performed before the era of highly sensitive solid-phase assays have shown a lower incidence of acute rejection in highly…2020 American Transplant Congress
Development of a New Kidney Paired Donation (KPD) Program: Starting a Domino Chain with a Deceased Donor

In-Vivo Application of Ides (Imlifidase) in Nonhuman Primates Results in Xenoreactive Desensitization: A Novel Anti-Humoral Therapy
*Purpose: Antibody-mediated rejection is a formidable barrier to xenograft survival. A novel anti-humoral IdeS therapy, which cleaves serum IgG, represents a promising therapy to reduce…2020 American Transplant Congress
The Clinical Relevance of cPRA in 0-ABDRDQ Mismatched Kidney Transplants
*Purpose: The clinical relevance of immune sensitization as measured by cPRA in kidney transplantation remains uncertain.*Methods: We identified 4,057 adult, first, kidney only transplant recipients…2020 American Transplant Congress
A Single Centre Report of Renal Transplantation Against a Positive Crossmatch Due to HLA-DP Donor Specific Antibodies without Prior Antibody Removal
