Cost Effectiveness of Hepatitis C Positive Donor Kidney Transplantation for Hepatitis C Negative Recipients with Concomitant Direct-Acting Anti-Viral Therapy
Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond.
Background: The development of direct acting antiviral (DAA) therapy for hepatitis C virus (HCV) could allow for safe and effective treatment following renal transplantation (RT).…2018 American Transplant Congress
Early Steroid Withdrawal and Kidney Transplant Outcomes for Recipients with Delayed Graft Function
Current guidelines suggest early steroid withdrawal (ESW) regimen for kidney transplant (KT) recipients with low immunological risk. Delayed graft function (DGF) is a risk factor…2018 American Transplant Congress
What Deceased Donors Do KPD Candidates Accept?
Background: Possible utilization of deceased donors (DDs) to initiate KPD chains has been of interest to the transplant community. OPTN KPD candidates are required to…2018 American Transplant Congress
Genome Wide Non-HLA Alloimmunity Contributes to Graft Loss after Kidney Transplantation

Enhancing Coordination across Healthcare Settings through a Web-Based Transplant Referral Exchange (T-REX) Platform
1Emory University, Atlanta, GA; 2Apex Health Innovations, Simi Valley, CA.
Background: Communication between dialysis and transplant centers with regard to end-stage renal disease patient information throughout the transplant process is administratively intensive. We collaborated with…2018 American Transplant Congress
T cell Phenotypes Predict Infectious Risk in Transplanted Children
AIM: Current monitoring strategies do not adequately differentiate infection from complications such as allograft rejection (AR). We aimed to identify peripheral T cell phenotypes that…2018 American Transplant Congress
IgM HLA DSAs Do Not Alter the Outcomes of Renal Allograft Rejection
Introduction: whilst IgG HLA DSAs are associated with renal allograft rejection and graft loss, the role of IgM HLA DSAs is controversial. We investigate the…2018 American Transplant Congress
Defining Response to Standard of Care Treatment in Kidney Recipients with Antibody-Mediated Rejection: Role of C1q-Binding Donor-Specific Anti-HLA Antibodies
Paris Translational Research Center for Organ Transplantation, Paris, France.
A major hurdle to improving clinical care in kidney transplantation is the lack of biomarkers of the response to antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) treatment. We investigated…2018 American Transplant Congress
Comparison of C1Q Binding and Flow Cytometric Crossmatch Results Provides an Accurate Evaluation of Hypersensitive Kidney Transplant Patients
Measurement of C1q binding to Donor specific antibodies (DSA) gives transplantation chance to hypersensitive patients having non-binding high amount of anti-HLA antibodies. In our series…2018 American Transplant Congress
Delayed Graft Function in Live Donor HLA-Incompatible Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Multicenter Study
1JHU, Baltimore; 2UCSF, San Francisco.
Background: Many patients with a willing, but incompatible live donor choose to undergo incompatible live donor kidney transplantation (ILDKT) facilitated by desensitization procedures to eliminate…
