    The Associations Between Body Mass Index and Kidney Transplant Outcomes Are Mediated by Weight-Adjusted Immunosuppression Dosing.

    K. Flabouris,1,2 S. Chadban,1,3,4 M. Ladhani,1,3,5 M. Cervelli,6 P. Clayton.1,2,6

    1Australia and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant (ANZDATA) Registry, Adelaide, Australia; 2School of Medicine, University of Adelaide, Adelaide, Australia; 3Sydney Medical School, University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia; 4Department of Renal Medicine, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney, Australia; 5Department of Renal Medicine, Lyell McEwin Hospital, Adelaide, Australia; 6Central Northern Adelaide Renal and Transplantation Service, Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, Australia

    Purpose: High body mass index (BMI) is associated with acute rejection after kidney transplantation. We hypothesised that weight-adjusted immunosuppression dosing is a contributing factor. We…

    Prevalence of CYP3A Genomic Variances and Impact on Tacrolimus Dosing Requirements in Kidney Transplant Recipients in Eastern North Carolina.

    T. Asempa,1 S. Hudson,2 L. Rebellato,2 A. Maldonado.1

    1Vidant Medical Center, Greenville, NC; 2East Carolina University, Greenville, NC

    BACKGROUND: African American (AA) patients are substantially more likely to express CYP3A5. Presence of CYP3A5 polymorphisms is an important pharmacotherapeutic consideration due to the extensive…

    Is Once-Daily Extended-Release Tacrolimus Better Than Twice-Daily Standard-Release Tacrolimus? A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials.

    G. Gu, H. Hang, Q. Xia.

    Department of Hepatic Surgery, Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Shanghai, China

    Tacrolimus is one of the major immunosuppressants commonly used in transplant recipients. Extended-release tacrolimus is expected to have immunosuppressant effects equivalent to standard-release tacrolimus while…
  • 2016 American Transplant Congress

    Evaluation of a Risk-Stratified Induction Immunosuppression Protocol Utilizing Low-Dose Antithymocyte Globulin in Renal Transplantation.
