BACKGROUND: Thymoglobulin is used effectively as an induction agent in kidney transplantation, but there is no consensus on the optimal dose. In order to delineate the safest effective dose, an open-labeled randomized clinical trial was designed.
METHODS: In this study, 90 adult kidney transplant recipients (KTR) were randomized before transplantation in three groups to receive thymoglobulin: Arm A (4.5 mg/kg in 3 days), Arm B (4.5 mg/kg single bolus dose), and Arm C (6 mg/kg in 3 days). Renal function, infections, and rate of readmissions were evaluated during the first post transplantation year.
RESULTS: Ninety adult kidney recipients were enrolled (51% deceased donor). No significant statistical difference was found in acute rejection episodes or type of rejection between these groups, although patients in Arm A showed more severe histopathologic changes according to Banff 2013 criteria, in renal biopsies (P=.03). At the first month after transplantation serum Cr was lower (P=.001) and GFR was higher (P=.04) in Arm A, but there was no significant difference among the three groups at 3, 6, and 12 months post-transplant.
CONCLUSION: Although all regimens showed the same efficacy regarding the rate of rejection episodes, 3-day 4.5 mg/kg Thymoglobulin had significantly fewer complications.
