Tertiary Lymphoid Organs in Renal Chronic Allograft Rejection
Starzl Transplantation Institute, Pittsburgh, PA
*Purpose: Chronic allograft rejection remains a major obstacle to long-term allograft survival. Tertiary lymphoid organs (TLOs) are ectopic lymphoid structures that arise in non-lymphoid tissues…2019 American Transplant Congress
A Prospective Randomized Multicenter Trial (B E S T Trial) of Belatacept-Based C N I- and Corticosteroid-Free Immunosuppression: Final Two Year Results
*Purpose: The BEST Trial (Belatacept-based Early Steroid Withdrawal Trial) is a prospective, randomized, multi-center trial designed to compare two belatacept (BELA)-based calcineurin inhibitor-free (CNI), early…2019 American Transplant Congress
Increase in 48 Month Cumulative Acute Rejection Rates in the Most Recent Cohort: The 2018 Transplant Report of the North American Pediatric Renal Trials and Collaborative Studies (NAPRTCS)
*Purpose: The NAPRTCS registry has collected data on children receiving kidney transplants in North America since 1987. The registry has served to document and influence…2019 American Transplant Congress
Tacrolimus Pharmacokinetics in Young, Middle Age and Older Renal Transplant Recipients- Impact of CYP3A5*3*6*7 Metabolic Composite
*Purpose: In spite of increased renal transplantation in patients over 60 years and the need for age-adjusted tacrolimus maintenance immunosuppression, limited pharmacokinetic comparisons between young,…2019 American Transplant Congress
Impact of Race and Substance Use on Listing Decisions for Kidney Transplant
*Purpose: Racial/ethnic minority patients face reduced access to kidney transplantation. We hypothesized that this disparity may be magnified if patients also have major psychosocial liabilities…2019 American Transplant Congress
Extracellular Vesicles (EV) Mediate Antibody-Independent Tubular Senescence via Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitors p21/p16 in Antibody-Mediated Rejection (AMR)
*Purpose: Recent data suggest a strong correlation between kidney injury and the occurrence of accelerated senescence process, known as “Inflammaging”. However, the role of TEC…2019 American Transplant Congress
Patient Centered AUC-Monitoring of Tacrolimus Using Capillary Microsampling
Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet, Oslo, Norway
*Purpose: To reduce unwanted side effects of Tacrolimus (Tac), improvement of dosing is warranted. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of Tac based on trough concentrations (C0)…2019 American Transplant Congress
Basiliximab versus T-cell Depleting Induction Therapy in Elderly Kidney Transplant Recipients
MedStar Georgetown Transplant Institute, Washington, DC
*Purpose: The ideal induction therapy for elderly kidney transplant recipients is not known. Given concerns about increased risk of infection and malignancy and perceived decreased…2019 American Transplant Congress
Development of a Pharmacy Collaborative Practice Agreement to Improve Efficiency and Management of Prescribing in a Renal Transplant Clinic
*Purpose: This study describes the development of a Collaborative Pharmacy Practice Agreement (CPPA) between transplant pharmacists and physicians and assesses change in prescription volume and…2019 American Transplant Congress
Timing and Donor-Specific Antibodies, but Not C4d Deposition, Determine Leukocyte Infiltration in Renal Allograft Biopsies with the Histological Picture of Antibody-Mediated Rejection
*Purpose: Diagnosis of antibody-mediated rejection following kidney transplantation can be challenging, given the limited specificity of individual histological parameters and time-dependent occurrence of histological confounders.…
