Relationship 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...
متن کاملAnti-thymocyte globulin induced thrombocytopenia.
Anti-thymocyte globulin is strongly reactive with platelets as measured by flow cytometric analysis. This reactivity appears to be independent of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) phenotype, is dose-dependent with saturation of platelet binding sites readily achieved with concentrations of horse anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) at 0.25 mg per ml, and cannot be blocked with human anti-PLA1 antibody nor...
متن کاملEfficacy 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 کاملRheumatology 2001;40:1192 Anti-thymocyte globulin in scleroderma
SIR, The detailed study of aggressive immunosuppressive treatment of scleroderma by Stratton et al. [1] is of great interest. Certainly novel approaches are justified in a rheumatic disease which has proved resistant to all forms of treatment. Indeed my colleagues and I instituted a similar trial of anti-thymocyte in combination with other immunosuppressive drugs which was reported in a confere...
متن کاملImmunosuppressive therapy with anti-thymocyte globulin and cyclosporine A in selected children with hypoplastic refractory cytopenia.
It is currently unknown whether immunosuppressive therapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the most appropriate treatment strategy for children with refractory cytopenia and normal karyotype or trisomy 8. We report on 31 children with hypoplastic refractory cytopenia treated with immunosuppressive therapy consisting of antithymocyte globulin and cyclosporine. At 6 months, 22 of 29 ...
