Belatacept Provides Superior Inhibition of Donor Specific Antibody Formation in Kidney Transplant Recipients with Acute Rejection
Emory Transplant Center, Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, GA
*Purpose: The factors responsible for chronic renal allograft dysfunction and premature graft loss are incompletely understood and likely multifactorial. Immunologic injury partially attributable to the…2020 American Transplant Congress
The Role of the Molecular Microscope to Guide Therapy for T-Cell Mediated Rejection in Kidney Transplants
1Virginia Commonwealth University, Glen Allen, VA, 2ATAGC, Edmonton, AB, Canada
*Purpose: Histologic lesions (I+T) to characterize T-cell mediated rejection (TCMR) can be non-specific. In some cases the inflammation may represent a ‘response to wounding’ rather…2020 American Transplant Congress
Anti-HLA IgM Antibodies are Unaffected by Imlifidase (IdeS) Treatment
*Purpose: The immunoglobulin G (IgG)-degrading cysteine protease, imlifidase (IdeS) is an IgG endopeptidase under development as a rapid desensitization treatment in kidney transplantation. Imlifidase is…2020 American Transplant Congress
Clinicopathological Evaluation of Long-Term Survivor More Than 10 Years after Living Kidney Transplant with Corticosteroid Early Withdrawal Protocol
*Purpose: We have previously reported that favorable short-term outcomes of kidney recipients were achieved by corticosteroid early withdrawal protocol (CSEW) compared to the conventional protocol…2020 American Transplant Congress
Paired-Donor Kidney Exchange Has Comparable Early Graft Function to Directed Living Donor
Transplant Surgery, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA
*Purpose: Living kidney donation in the United States is associated with improved graft and patient survival. However, there is minimal data on graft function in…2020 American Transplant Congress
Hepatitis C-Infected Donors and Hepatitis C-Infected Recipients: Analysis of Renal Transplant Outcomes
*Purpose: Increased utilization of hepatitis C virus infected organs could reduce the supply demand mismatch in organ transplantation. At this time, there is little data…2020 American Transplant Congress
Efficacy and Safety of Single-Dose Rabbit Anti-Thymocyte Globulin versus Basiliximab Induction among Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipients
Hospital do Rim, Sao Paulo, Brazil
*Purpose: Induction therapy is a standard component of kidney transplant immunosuppression protocols. However, in the pediatric population, there are still uncertainties about the ideal induction…2020 American Transplant Congress
Analyzing the Effect of a Closed Incision Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System on Wound Complications and Surgical Site Infections in Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Propensity Score Matched Analysis
Transplantation Services, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney, Australia
*Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine if a closed incision negative pressure wound therapy (ciNPWT) system prevents wound complications and surgical site…2020 American Transplant Congress
The Noninvasive Urinary Sediment Double Immunostaining Test Predicts BK Polyomavirus Nephropathy in Kidney Transplant Recipients
*Purpose: This study aimed to improve the diagnostic value of decoy cells for BK polyomavirus associated-nephropathy (BKPyVAN) in kidney transplant recipients.*Methods: A total of 105…2020 American Transplant Congress
Is the Epitope Mismatch Load Enough to Identify HLA-DQ Mismatches with a Low Risk for De Novo DSA Development?
*Purpose: The development of de novo donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies (dnDSA) remains a major risk factor for poor long-term kidney allograft outcomes. In particular, anti-HLA-DQ dnDSAs,…
