Long-Term Preservation of Renal Function in Liver Transplant Recipients with Rabbit Anti-Thymocyte Globulin Induction and Delayed Initiation of Calcineurin Inhibitors.
Transplant Institute, Henry Ford Health System, Detroit, MI
Methods: A single-center retrospective analysis of medical records of 989 liver transplant recipients from 2001-2010 were reviewed and evaluated for patients who received thymo induction…2017 American Transplant Congress
Costimulatory Blockade in Delayed Graft Function.
Background: Delayed graft function (DGF) contributes to higher risk of rejection, poorer graft survival, hospital length of stay (LOS), and other morbidities. Studies also suggest…2017 American Transplant Congress
Changes in Urinary Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin Combined with Urine Cytokines and Microalbuminuria as Predictors for Interstitial Fibrosis and Tubular Atrophy in Kidney Transplantation: A Matched-Pair Tissue Cohort Study.
Background: Late graft loss from interstitial fibrosis - tubular atrophy (IF/TA) continues to be the “Achilles' heel” of kidney transplantation (KT). Long-term calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs)…2017 American Transplant Congress
Felodipine Diminishes Decline in Glomerular Filtration Rate in Lung Transplanted Patients Treated with Cyclosporine: A Randomized Placebo Controlled Trial.
Background. Calcium channel blockers may ameliorate the decline in renal function caused by calcineurin inhibitors in lung transplant (LTX) recipients. We previously demonstrated a 47…2017 American Transplant Congress
Variability in Tacrolimus Concentrations Across Pediatric Solid Organ Transplants.
PURPOSE: We characterized the evolution of out-of-range tacrolimus (TAC) concentrations and associated factors during 1 year following a pediatric solid organ transplant (SOT).METHODS: Heart, kidney…2017 American Transplant Congress
Risk of Major Bleeding in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients Taking Calcineurin Inhibitors Concomitantly with Direct Oral Anticoagulants Compared to Warfarin.
Pharmacy, CHI St. Luke's Health-Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center, Houston, TX
Purpose: Direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) and calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) are both substrates of CYP 3A metabolism; therefore, the purpose of this study is to assess…2016 American Transplant Congress
Genomic-Derived Markers to Identify Calcineurin Inhibitor Nephrotoxicity in Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Background:Calcineurin inhibitor nephrotoxicity (CNIT) is a well-known contributor to chronic allograft dysfunction in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). Pediatric KTRs are particularly at risk given their…2016 American Transplant Congress
Adding an Antimetabolite to a Calcineurin-Inhibitor-Based Immunosuppression Regimen Leads to Improved Native Renal Function After Liver Transplantation.
Surgery, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI.
Background: Nephrotoxic side effects of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) have been well established. The addition of anti-metabolites (AM) to CNI-based immunosuppression (IS) regimens has been proposed…2016 American Transplant Congress
Tacrolimus Precision Medicine: Antibiotics Increase Intra-Patient Variability in Tacrolimus Trough Concentrations in Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Medicine/Nephrology and Hyeprtension, Weill Cornell Medical College, New York, NY.
BACKGROUND. The gut microbiome impacts drug absorption, metabolism, and distribution and was recently shown to be associated with tacrolimus dosing requirements. Since antibiotics can alter…2016 American Transplant Congress
Virological Response at 4 Weeks With a Sofosbuvir-Based Antiviral Regimen in Liver Transplant Recipients with Recurrent Hepatitis C.
Background: The literature is growing in the area of safety, efficacy and tolerability of sofosbuvir (SOF)- based antivirals therapy (AVT) in recurrent hepatitis C virus…
