Natural Evolution Of Tacrolimus Intra-patient Variability Among Renal Transplant Recipients
University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH
*Purpose: High tacrolimus (TAC) intra-patient variability (IPV) has been correlated with negative outcomes post renal transplant (RT). The natural evolution of TAC IPV remains uncharacterized…2019 American Transplant Congress
The Utility of Donor and Recipient BK Virus Antibody Testing Prior to Renal Transplantation in Risk Assessment for Developing BK Viremia
Driscoll Children's Hospital, Corpus Christi, TX
*Purpose: The correlation between donor (DON) and recipient (REC) BKV antibody (AB) titers and BK viremia in renal transplant (RTx) has not been well-studied in…2019 American Transplant Congress
Thymoglobulin Induction with Tacrolimus and Everolimus Maintenance Therapy in Elderly Kidney Transplantation Results in Prolonged Lymphocyte Depletion and Do Not Favor Regulatory Profile
*Purpose: Despite the growing number of elderly kidney transplant (Ktx) recipientes few studies describe the effects of immunosuppression on this group. We evaluated the immunological…2019 American Transplant Congress
Complete Robotic-Assisted Kidney Transplantation: Our Initial Experience
VCU Medical Center, Richmond, VA
*Purpose: Kidney transplantation is the standard treatment for patients with ESRD. Very limited advancement has been made in its surgical aspects. Minimal invasive approach for…2019 American Transplant Congress
Bisphosphonates Effectively Improve the Long Term Renal Transplant Outcomes; A Single Center Retrospective Study
*Purpose: Kidney transplantation (KT) is a treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease. Despite of remarkable improvement in short term graft survival, few…2019 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Transplant Outcomes and Organ Acceptance Practice Patterns: Nationwide Analyses of the US and France
*Purpose: Approximately 3,500 donated kidneys are discarded in the US each year, drawing concern from Medicare and advocacy groups. We hypothesised that more aggressive organ…2019 American Transplant Congress
Maternal and Pregnancy Outcomes after Living Donor Nephrectomy in a Multistate Cohort
*Purpose: Studies have demonstrated increased risk of preeclampsia for pregnancies after kidney donation in homogenous populations or single-center studies. Our study aims to delineate maternal…2019 American Transplant Congress
Renal Outcomes from Expander-1: Pilot Study of HCV+ Donor Kidneys for HCV- Kidney Recipients
*Purpose: Direct acting antivirals (DAAs) have led to high cure rates (>95%) for hepatitis C. Utilization of HCV+ donor kidneys for patients with advanced kidney…2019 American Transplant Congress
Transcriptome Profiling Of Renal Transplant Biopsies With Acute Cellular Rejection From Patients On Calcineurin Inhibitor-based Or Cni-avoidance Immunosuppression
*Purpose: Despite their suboptimal toxicity profile, calcineurin-inhibitors (CNIs) remain the cornerstone of renal transplant immunosuppression. Previous efforts to completely eliminate CNIs failed, because CNI-avoidance protocols…2019 American Transplant Congress
Normothermic Machine Perfusion of Human Kidneys without an Oxygen Carrier
Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA
*Purpose: Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) is a promising strategy for pre-transplant reconditioning and viability assessment of marginal renal grafts. All current clinical kidney NMP protocols…
