Vanderbilt University, Nashville, TN
*Purpose: The UNOS KAS system incorporates A2 to B deceased donor kidney transplants (DDKTx) to improve access and reduce disparities in wait times for B…2019 American Transplant Congress
Race-Sex Effects on Immune Response Potential during Tacrolimus Minimization Therapy in Stable Renal Allograft Recipients
*Purpose: African American renal transplant recipients (RTR) exhibit more immunoreactivity to allografts which may contribute to chronic rejection. This study investigated race-sex influences on ex…2019 American Transplant Congress
A Retrospective Observational Analysis of Tacrolimus Metabolism Rate: No Evidence for Impact on Renal Function
*Purpose: A previous publication found that fast metabolisers of tacrolimus had inferior renal function compared to slow metabolisers in a Caucasian population (Thölking et al.,…2019 American Transplant Congress
Impact of HLA-DR Matching on HLA-DQ Matching Status and the Development of Anti-HLA-DQ De Novo DSA under Calcineurin Inhibitor or Belatacept Immunosuppression
*Purpose: De novo donor-specific HLA antibodies (dnDSA) that develop after kidney transplantation target more frequently allo-HLA-DQ antigens in comparison to other allo-HLA antigens. Yet, organ…2019 American Transplant Congress
Estrogen Mediated Protection in Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury (IRI) is Extrinsic to the Kidney
*Purpose: IRI causes morbidity in renal transplantation and other surgical scenarios. A better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of IRI is required so that strategies…2019 American Transplant Congress
Torque Teno Virus is a Prognostic Biomarker for Acute Biopsy-Proven Alloreactivity in Kidney Transplants
*Purpose: Drug-induced immunosuppression in kidney transplantation is crucial to prevent allograft rejection, but increases risk for infectious, cardiovascular and malignant disease. Tailoring of immunosuppressive drug…2019 American Transplant Congress
Unsuccessful Resuscitative Thoracotomy Patients Are Potential Kidney Donors
1University of Colorado Hospital, Aurora, CO, 2Denver Health Medical Center, Denver, CO
*Purpose: Renal transplantation remains the most effective therapy in patients with end-stage renal disease, offering exceptional survival benefits and quality of life improvement. However, a…2019 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of Renal Transplantation in Elderly Patients Older Than 60 Years of Age
*Purpose: Patients ≥ 60 years are the largest growing age group which comprise 40% of all patients with ESRD. Kidney transplantation has been shown to…2019 American Transplant Congress
Outcomes of Reduced Thymoglobulin Induction Dosing in Elderly Kidney Transplant Recipients at a Steroid Sparing Center
Pharmacy, NewYork-Presbyterian, New York, NY
*Purpose: Studies have demonstrated a mortality benefit with kidney transplantation (KT) in elderly patients, but there is little consensus over optimal immunosuppression. Older KT recipients…2019 American Transplant Congress
Real World Data Support International Consenus Guidelines on Management of CMV after Kidney Transplantation
Oslo University Hospital - Rikshospitalet, Oslo, Norway
*Purpose: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) naïve kidney transplant recipients (R-) transplanted with an organ from a CMV positive donor (D+) are at high risk for CMV disease.…
