Efficacy of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin in severe aplastic anemia.
BACKGROUND A combination of horse anti-thymocyte globulin and cyclosporine produces responses in 60-70% of patients with severe aplastic anemia. We performed a phase II study of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin and cyclosporine as first-line therapy for severe aplastic anemia. DESIGN AND METHODS Twenty patients with severe aplastic anemia treated with rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin were compare...
متن کاملBone marrow transplantation in thalassemia major patients using "short" anti-thymocyte globulin therapy in Shiraz, Southern Iran.
Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) was performed on 113 Iranian transfusion-dependent thalassemia major patients from May 1993 through September 2003. To have at least 2 years follow-up, we report BMT on 90 patients transplanted up to December 2001. The donors were human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical, mixed lymphocyte culture (MLC)-nonreactive siblings (n = 74) on parents (n = 6);...
متن کاملEfficacy of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin for steroid-resistant acute rejection after liver transplantation
Acute cellular rejection after liver transplantation (LT) can be treated with steroid pulse therapy, but there is no ideal treatment for steroid-resistant acute rejection (SRAR). We aimed to determine the feasibility and potential complications of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (rATG) application to treat SRAR in liver transplant recipients. We retrospectively reviewed medical records of 429 re...
متن کاملRabbit Anti-Thymocyte Globulin: Evidence for Clinical Benefit in High Immunological Risk Kidney Transplantation
Rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin is used worldwide to treat and prevent rejection in kidney transplantation. Multiple mechanisms of action of this polyclonal preparation are responsible for its success. Studies have supported clinical benefits of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin in high immunological risk kidney transplant recipients when used as an induction agent at the time of transplant and for...
متن کاملRelationship between post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder and Anti-Thymocyte Globulin or Anti-Lymphocyte Globulin
Abstract Background: Lymphoproliferative disorders are among the most serious and potentially fatal complications of chronic immunosuppression in kidney transplant recipients. The principle risk factors for development of PTLD are the degree of overall immunosuppression and the EBV serostatus of the recipient. In this study, the risk of PTLD in kidney transplant recipients who received Anti- L...
