Clinical Outcomes of ABO and HLA Incompatible Kidney Transplantation – Nationwide Cohort Study.
Background This is a nationwide cohort study to investigate the impact of anti-A/B antibody or donor specific anti-HLA antibody (HLA-DSA) on the clinical outcomes in…2017 American Transplant Congress
Update of a Placebo-Controlled Trial of C1 Esterase Inhibitor for Prevention of Antibody Mediated Rejection (ABMR) in Highly-HLA Sensitized Patients.
Kidney Transplant, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, LA, CA
INTRODUCTION: Desensitization (DES) strategies focus primarily on antibody reduction using IVIG, rituximab ± PLEX to prevent DSA-induced ABMR and rebound B-cell activity. Pathologic features of…2017 American Transplant Congress
Assessing the Impact of the New KAS on Transplant Rates in Highly-HLA Sensitized (HS) Patients After Desensitization (Des) 2 Years Post Implementation.
Introduction: The new KAS aims to improve access to transplantation for HS patients, specifically CPRA 99-100%. Our center has extensive experience w. DES to improve…2017 American Transplant Congress
Three Year Outcomes Following Positive Crossmatch Renal Transplantation Despite Failure to Convert to Negative Flow Crossmatch After Desensitization.
Purpose: To determine outcomes of positive crossmatch (PXM) renal transplant recipients that failed to convert to a negative flow cytometry crossmatch (FCXM) despite desensitization. Methods:…2017 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of 100 ABO Incompatible Kidney Transplants: A Single US Center Experience.
Comprehensive Transplant Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA
IntroductionAcceptable patient and graft outcomes of ABO incompatible (ABOi) living donor kidney transplantation (LDKT) have been reported with the use of desensitization strategies. Data on…2017 American Transplant Congress
Outcome of Living-Donor Kidney Transplantation in Cross-Match-Positive Recipients at a Single Center.
BackgroundLiving-donor kidney transplantation in cross-match (XM)-positive patients remains high-risk and requires an optimal desensitization protocol. We started a desensitization protocol for XM-positive patients in January…2017 American Transplant Congress
Does HLA Class of Complement Activating Donor Specific Antibodies Matter: Single Centre Retrospective Analysis of Renal Allograft Outcomes.
Introduction. Complement activating donor specific antibodies may be associated with worse outcomes in a cohort of patients who have undergone HLA-AIT. We looked for differences…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Serum EDTA Treatment on Identification of Unacceptable Antigens for Kidney Transplant Candidates.
Pathology, University of Chicago Medicine, Chicago, IL
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The prozone effect is one factor causing false negative reactions in HLA antibody testing. EDTA, which is commonly used to remove this…2017 American Transplant Congress
Effective Targeting Plasma Cells with Daratumumab (Anti-CD38) and Mozobil (Anti-CXCR4) in a Sensitized Non-Human Primate Model.
1Surgery, Duke Transplant Center, Durham, NC; 2Surgery, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, Korea
[Introduction] The presence of donor-specific antibodies (DSA) leads to antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) and decreased graft survival. Therefore efforts continue to be made to reduce DSA…2016 American Transplant Congress
Incidence of Viral Infections in HLA-Sensitized Patients (HS Pts) Desensitized with IVIG + Rituximab (DES) Compared to Non-HS Pts Receiving Standard Immunosuppression.
Comprehensive Transplant Center, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA.
Introduction: HS pts (PRA>50%, DSA+ at transplant) who are transplanted without DES represent a significant risk for antibody-mediated rejection. Prior to transplantation, HS pts require…
