Clinical Significance of Alloantibodies in Hand Transplantation: Impact on Rejection and Functional Outcome.
Purpose: Although alloantibodies, and donor-specific antibodies (DSA) in particular, are well-known to negatively impact graft survival in human solid organ transplantation, little is known about…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of a B-Cell Targeting Agent on Antibody Mediated Rejection and Graft' Survival in Liver Transplantation with Preformed DSAs.
Introduction The negative impact of preformed anti-HLA donor specific antibodies (DSAs) in liver transplantation is clearly established. However, the potential interest of a B-cell depleting…2017 American Transplant Congress
Non-Donor-Specific Anti-HLA Antibodies Have an Adverse Impact in Kidney Graft Outcomes.
1CHP, Porto, Portugal; 2IPST, Porto, Portugal
Few studies have studied the impact of non-donor-specific antibodies (NDSA) in kidney transplantation (KT), with most showing no impact of these antibodies. As antibody-mediated graft…2017 American Transplant Congress
APRIL/BLyS Inhibition Reduces Donor Specific Antibody in Sensitized Mice.
Background: Highly sensitized candidates on the kidney transplant waitlist remain a significant challenge as current desensitization protocols have variable success rates. Improved therapies are therefore…2017 American Transplant Congress
Delayed Tolerance Induction Protocol for Vascularized Composite Allografts in Non-Human Primates: The Immunomodulatory Effect of Donor Bone Marrow Transplantation Does Not Prevent the Development of Chronic Rejection in the Absence of Durable Mixed Chimerism.
Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA
PURPOSE: Donor bone marrow transplantation (DBMT) has been investigated in experimental and clinical vascularized composite allotransplantation (VCA). With longer-term follow-up, reports of chronic VCA rejection…2017 American Transplant Congress
Emerging Safety and Tolerability of Obinutuzumab, a Type 2 Anti-CD20 Monoclonal Antibody for the Desensitization of Renal Transplant Candidates.
Background: Rituximab has limited efficacy for desensitizing allosensitized patients (pts) with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and enabling kidney transplantation (KTx), however, tissue B-cell depletion is…2017 American Transplant Congress
Incidence of Donor-Specific Anti-HLA Antibodies in Non-HLA Sensitized Patients Given Tacrolimus Once or Twice Daily During the First Two Years Post-Transplantation.
Department of Nephrology and Organ Transplantation, Toulouse University Hospital, Toulouse, France
Donor-specific anti-HLA antibody (DSA)-mediated rejection (AMR) is a main cause of graft loss after kidney transplantation. Non-adherence is a risk factor for AMR and graft…2017 American Transplant Congress
Correlation of Complement Activating Donor Specific Antibodies as Measured by C3d and Cross-Match Status.
Introduction. Complement dependent cytotoxicity, first described in 1969 is the only functional assay studying complement activation. C3d assay is developed recently to study complement activation…2016 American Transplant Congress
Epitope Load Is Predictive of De Novo Donor Specific Antibodies Occurrence in Renal Transplant Recipients After Conversion from Cyclosporine to Everolimus.
IntroductionThe degree of HLA compatibility between donor and recipient is an important risk factor of developing de novo DSA, but misjudged by the number of…2016 American Transplant Congress
Torque Teno Virus – Inverse Association with Late Silent Antibody Mediated Kidney Allograft Rejection.
Clinical Problem and hypothesis: Antibody mediated rejection (ABMR) is a cardinal cause of late graft failure after kidney transplantation (KTX). A promising predictive diagnostic tool…
