Anti-HLA Antibodies Are Associated with Deterioration in Long-Term Renal Function Independently of Donor Specificity
*Purpose: Donor-specific antibodies (DSA) negatively impact graft survival, the clinical relevance of non-donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies (NDSA) is unclear. Hence, the purpose of our study is…2019 American Transplant Congress
Success in Lung Transplantation Outcomes after Receiving a Standardized Desensitization Therapy
*Purpose: With a goal to develop a safe, effective, and consistent approach to desensitization therapy using IVIg in lung transplant (LuT), we instituted a standard…2019 American Transplant Congress
Adjunctive Therapy With Tocilizumab For Treatment Of Acute Antibody Mediated Rejection – 2 Year Experience
Washington University, St. Louis, MO
*Purpose: Reporting our center's experience in use of tocilizumab for treatment of antibody mediated rejection*Methods: We have previously reported the efficacy of Tocilizumab (TCZ), an…2019 American Transplant Congress
Unos Analysis Of Deceased Donor Renal Transplant (ddrtx) Outcomes In Sensitized Patients After Implementation Of The Kidney Allocation System (kas)
Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, NY
*Purpose: Introduction of KAS in 2014 prioritized access to DDRTx for highly-sensitized candidates although it was unclear whether the outcomes would be acceptable in this…2019 American Transplant Congress
Novel In Vitro Germinal Center Culture System Demonstrates More Aggressive B Cell to Plasma Blast Differentiation in Allosensitized Nonhuman Primates
Department of Surgery, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC
*Purpose: The allogeneic humoral immune response is largely composed of T cell dependent antibody responses produced after B and T cells interact within the germinal…2019 American Transplant Congress
Memory T Follicular Helper Cell Alloresponse is Memory B Cell Independent and Inhibited by CD28 Costimulation Blockade
Emory University School of Medicine, Atlanta, GA
*Purpose: Donor-directed HLA antibodies are an important cause of renal allograft injury, but reliable and durable therapeutic options to prevent or eliminate donor-specific antibodies (DSA)…2019 American Transplant Congress
Post-Transplant Cancer Following Living Donor HLA-Incompatible Kidney Transplantation
1Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, 2University of Alabama, Birmingham, AL
*Purpose: Incompatible living donor kidney transplantation (ILDKT) recipients require increased immunosuppression compared to their compatible living donor kidney transplant (CLDKT) counterparts. This continued exposure to…2019 American Transplant Congress
APRIL-/-/BLyS-/- Deplete Antibody Secreting Cells and Alloantibody Production in Sensitized Antibody Mediated Rejection Model
University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI
*Purpose: Antibody mediated rejection (AMR) is a major cause of kidney allograft failure. APRIL (A proliferation inducing ligand) and BLyS (B Lymphocyte Stimulator) are two…2019 American Transplant Congress
α -1,3-galactosyltransferase Knockout Porcine Tissue And Organ May Reduce The Risks Of Antibody Mediated Rejection Via Less Rhesus Igm Cross-reactivity.
Duke Transplant Center, Durham, NC
*Purpose: Previously, we observed that sera from rhesus macaques contained preformed antibodies against wild type (WT) swine splenocytes. In the context of xenotransplantation, preformed xenoantibodies…2019 American Transplant Congress
AMD3100 and Low-Dose FK506 Prevent De Novo Donor Specific Antibody Formation and Rejection in a Sensitized Kidney Transplantation Model
Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD
*Purpose: De novo donor specific antibody (DSA) formation and antibody mediated rejection (AMR) are the main cause of allograft failure long-term. We have developed a…
