Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study was to compare two strategies of de novo donor specific antibodies (DSA) and antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) prevention in renal transplant recipients: high dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG)/rituximab regimens versus rituximab alone.


Clinical Trial Description

Although recent advances in immunosuppressive regimens after kidney transplantation (KT) have reduced the incidence and consequences of T-cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) and have improved short-term outcomes, long-term allograft loss attributable to AMR is still responsible for substantial medical and socioeconomic burdens in kidney transplant recipients. Numerous studies have shown that de novo DSA after KT are associated with AMR, which leads to allograft loss. IVIG is a medication that has emerged as a useful tool in modulating immunity, treatment of AMR and in desensitization protocol. Treatment with rituximab or combination of IVIG/rituximab has sought to further diminish antibody production (de novo DSA) in the treatment of AMR. Several studies have been reported, but in the absence of control groups or standardization of treatment, their efficacy is difficult to assess. ;
