Clinical Trial Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare 2 different cold storage solutions, used to preserve
donor lungs for lung transplantation, and their effect on cytokine activation related to
ischemic reperfusion injury. Primary endpoint is 30 day survival.
Description:
The length of ischemic time in harvesting lung allografts is associated with graft survival.
It is further thought that ischemic changes in early post-transplantation bronchoscopic
biopsies has a direct correlation with later development of chronic rejection.
