INTRODUCTION: Data suggest an additional role of T cells in antibody-mediated rejections. In 2001 a protocol for AB0-incompatible kidney transplantation based on B-cell-depleting anti-CD20 antibody rituximab, antigen-specific blood group IgG immunoadsorption, intravenous immunoglobulins, and triple immunosuppression was introduced in Europe, which used induction therapy with the use of interleukin-2 receptor antibody (IL2-RA) basiliximab. We used thymoglobulin in AB0-incompatible patients as induction in the face of high immunologic risk.
METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated a cohort of 9 AB0i living donation (LD) recipients from 2011 to 2014. Desensitization included blood group-specific immunoadsorption. Eighteen AB0-compatible LD recipients receiving induction therapy with thymoglobulin served as control subjects. Another control group consisted of 18 AB0-compatible LD recipients receiving basiliximab. Follow-up was 24 months. We captured graft function by estimating glomerular filtration rate (eGFR by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula), rejection episodes, and bacterial and viral infections.
RESULTS: All patients experienced immediate graft function. No significant or clinical differences were observed regarding graft function, rejection rates, or infections between the groups, although there seemed to be slightly higher cytomegalovirus infection rates due to preemptive therapy strategy.
CONCLUSIONS: Thymoglobulin appears to be similar in safety and efficacy to IL-2-antagonists in AB0i kidney transplantation.
