Use of rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin for induction immunosuppression in high-risk kidney transplant recipients.
Kidney transplant remains the best type of renal replacement therapy in most patients with end-stage kidney disease, even in those with high immunologic risk. Immunosuppression in these patients is regarded as more complex, owing to the higher risk of both acute and chronic rejection. The advent of induction immunosuppression has resulted in a lower incidence of acute rejection and consequently...
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...

Background: The goal of Induction therapy is to prevent acute rejection during the early posttransplantation period by providing a high degree of Immunosuppression at the time of transplantation. Induction therapy is often considered essential to optimize outcomes, especially in patients at high risk for poor short-term outcomes. The optimal prophylactic induction immunosuppressive therapy to p...
متن کاملEvaluating safety and efficacy of rabbit antithymocyte globulin induction in elderly kidney transplant recipients.
OBJECTIVES The optimal immunosuppression regimen for elderly kidney transplant recipients is poorly defined. We sought to evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of thymoglobulin in geriatric recipients of deceased-donor kidneys. MATERIALS AND METHODS A single-center, retrospective analysis was undertaken between elderly (≥ 65 years) (n=137) and nonelderly (n=276) kidney transplant recipi...
متن کاملPrimary immunosuppression with mycophenolate mofetil and antithymocyte globulin for kidney transplant recipients of a suboptimal graft.
BACKGROUND In renal transplantation the beneficial immunosuppressive effects of cyclosporin (CsA) may be curtailed by its nephrotoxicity, specially in patients receiving a cadaveric allograft from suboptimal donors or at risk of delayed graft function. Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and antithymocyte globulin (ATG) have each demonstrated to be potent immunosuppressants in renal transplantation. In...
