Immunosuppressive therapy is the treatment for aplastic anemia patients ineligible for transplantation. The role of hematopoietic growth factors as adjunct to treatment in these patients is unclear. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials comparing treatment with immunosuppressive therapy and hematopoietic growth factors to immunosuppressive therapy al...
BK viremia and nephritis are increasing problems in renal transplant recipients. The exact cause of the increasing prevalence of this condition remains poorly understood. Increasing prevalence has been correlated with newer immunosuppressive agents and the decline in acute rejection rates in recent years. The clinical manifestation varies from the asymptomatic state of viremia and nephritis to ...
Immunosuppressive therapy can improve clinical, biochemical and histological features and considerably prolong survival in patients with autoimmune hepatitis. Although ethnicity may affect disease severity and presentation, the long-term outcome of immunosuppression in Korean populations is unknown. This study was aimed to assess the efficacy of immunosuppressive therapy and determine the progn...
Since its introduction in 1988, recombinant human erythropoietin (epoetin) has been standard treatment for patients with anemia due to chronic kidney disease. From 1998 to 2004, nearly 200 epoetin-treated persons with chronic kidney disease developed antibodies to epoetin, resulting in pure red cell aplasia (PRCA). The majority of these patients received Eprex, an epoetin alfa product marketed ...
Long-term immunosuppressive therapy with severe adverse effects is indispensable to maintain disease remission in frequently relapsing nephrotic syndrome (NS) in children. Hence, development of new therapy with less toxicity for relapses of NS is required. We demonstrated a case of a 2-year-old boy with frequently relapsing NS, whose frequent relapses were successfully treated with azithromycin...
Immunotherapy has been used for years in many types of cancer therapy. Recently, cancer immunotherapy has focused on mechanisms which can enhance the development of cell-mediated immunity. Anticancer medications are administered to inhibit immunosuppressive factors such as nagalase enzyme, which is produced by neoplastic cells and destroys macrophage activating factor (Gc-MAF). Anti-neoplastics...
HBV infection remains a major global health problem and continues to be a common cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality in both immunocompetent and immunosuppressed individuals. Reactivation of HBV is a serious complication of chemotherapy/immunosuppressive therapy in patients with HBV infection. In this article, we aim to describe the diagnosis, prevention and management of HBV infecti...
Conventional therapeutic drug monitoring based on measuring of blood concentrations (pharmacokinetic) is important in the clinical management of immunosuppressive therapy in transplantation medicine. Since rejection or infection occurs at irregular drug concentrations, immunosuppressive drug therapy is often empiric and prophylactic in nature. In addition, blood immunosuppressant levels are onl...
BACKGROUNDS/AIMS There are few guidelines for tailored immunosuppressive regimens for liver transplantation (LT) recipients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). To establish long-term immunosuppressive regimens suitable for Korean adult LT recipients, we analyzed those that were currently in use at a single high-volume institution. METHODS This cross-sectional study comprises three parts incl...
INTRODUCTION In systemic sclerosis (SSc) little evidence for the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive therapy exists. The objective of this study was to determine the extent to which SSc patients are treated with corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents. METHODS Data on duration and dosage of corticosteroids and on the type of immunosuppressive agent were analyzed from...
