Composite Prognostic Score Improves Clinical Benefit in Kidney Recipients Receiving Standard of Care Therapy for Antibody-Mediated Rejection.
Paris Translational Research Center for Organ Transplantation, Paris, France
There is a marked heterogeneity in AMR patients' prognosis after SOC treatment including plasma exchange (PE) and intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG). We investigated whether the use…2017 American Transplant Congress
In Clinic Systems to Address Adherence Barriers Decrease Late Allograft Rejection for Kidney Transplant Patients.
Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, OH
Background: Patient-identified barriers to taking immunosuppressive medications are associated with rejection and allograft loss in kidney transplant patients, yet interventions targeting adherence barriers are rarely…2017 American Transplant Congress
Impact of a B-Cell Targeting Agent on Antibody Mediated Rejection and Graft' Survival in Liver Transplantation with Preformed DSAs.
Introduction The negative impact of preformed anti-HLA donor specific antibodies (DSAs) in liver transplantation is clearly established. However, the potential interest of a B-cell depleting…2017 American Transplant Congress
Poor Prediction of Rejection and Kidney Survival by Donor-Specific-Antibodies Characterization.
Kidney transplant recipients with DSA have a greater likelihood of developing antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR) and kidney allograft loss. The aim of this study was to…2017 American Transplant Congress
Treatment and Outcomes of Simultaneous Acute Rejection and Polyomavirus Allograft Nephropathy.
University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD
Background: Reduction of immunosuppression for polyomavirus allograft nephropathy (PVAN) is associated with risk of acute rejection (AR), and in uncommon cases both are present together…2017 American Transplant Congress
Clinical and Molecular Significance of Microvascular Inflammation Negative Transplant Glomerulopathy.
Transplant glomerulopathy (TGP) with donor specific antibodies (DSA) and microvascular inflammation (MVI) is due to chronic antibody mediated rejection (CAMR). We reported previously that intragraft…2017 American Transplant Congress
Risk of Kidney Rejection Following Simultaneous Liver Kidney Transplantation.
Introduction: Simultaneous liver kidney transplant (SLK) recipients may be at risk of antibody-mediated kidney rejection (AMR) if the pre-transplant crossmatch is positive (+CXM). Accordingly, in…2017 American Transplant Congress
Development of an Anti-HLA Antibody-Producing Humanized Mouse Model.
Chronic antibody-mediated rejection due to anti-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies (Abs) is an important problem in organ transplantation. The spleen has been reported to be…2017 American Transplant Congress
Utility of Concomitant Biopsy in Simultaneous Pancreas Kidney Transplant Recipients in the Identification of Rejection of Pancreas and Kidney.
Mayo Clinic Arizona, Phoenix, AZ
Background: In simultaneous pancreas and kidney transplant (SPKTx) recipients, animal studies suggest concordant rejection rates of 88% (ref: Gruessner et al,1994). Limited information is available…2017 American Transplant Congress
Tacrolimus Dose Variability, CYP3A5 Genotype, and Acute Rejection in African American and European American Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Background: Poor immunosuppression with tacrolimus (TAC) after kidney transplantation contributes to the development of toxicity and loss of efficacy. We aimed to associate intra-patient TAC…
