Allograft and patient survival after sequential HSCT and kidney transplantation from the same donor-A multicenter analysis.

ABSTRACT: Tolerance induction through simultaneous hematopoietic stem cell and renal transplantation has shown promising results, but it is hampered by the toxicity of preconditioning therapies and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Moreover, renal function has never been compared to conventionally transplanted patients, thus, whether donor-specific tolerance results in improved outcomes remains unanswered. We collected follow-up data of published cases of renal transplantations after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from the same donor and compared patient and transplant kidney survival as well as function with caliper-matched living-donor renal transplantations from the Austrian dialysis and transplant registry. Overall, 22 tolerant and 20 control patients were included (median observation period 10 years [range 11 months to 26 years]). In the tolerant group, no renal allograft loss was reported, whereas 3 were lost in the control group. Median creatinine levels were 85 ?mol/l (interquartile range [IQR] 72-99) in the tolerant cohort and 118 ?mol/l (IQR 99-143) in the control group. Mixed linear-model showed around 29% lower average creatinine levels throughout follow-up in the tolerant group (P < .01). Our data clearly show stable renal graft function without long-term immunosuppression for many years, suggesting permanent donor-specific tolerance. Thus sequential transplantation might be an alternative approach for future studies targeting tolerance induction in renal allograft recipients.

Project description:Background and objectivesIn the United States, kidney paired donation networks have facilitated an increasing proportion of kidney transplants annually, but transplant outcome differences beyond 5 years between paired donation and other living donor kidney transplant recipients have not been well described.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsUsing registry-linked data, we compared National Kidney Registry (n=2363) recipients to control kidney transplant recipients (n=54,497) (February 2008 to December 2017). We estimated the risk of death-censored graft failure and mortality using inverse probability of treatment weighted Cox regression. The parsimonious model adjusted for recipient factors (age, sex, black, race, body mass index ≥30 kg/m2, diabetes, previous transplant, preemptive transplant, public insurance, hepatitis C, eGFR, antibody depleting induction therapy, year of transplant), donor factors (age, sex, Hispanic ethnicity, body mass index ≥30 kg/m2), and transplant factors (zero HLA mismatch).ResultsNational Kidney Registry recipients were more likely to be women, black, older, on public insurance, have panel reactive antibodies >80%, spend longer on dialysis, and be previous transplant recipients. National Kidney Registry recipients were followed for a median 3.7 years (interquartile range, 2.1-5.6; maximum 10.9 years). National Kidney Registry recipients had similar graft failure (5% versus 6%; log-rank P=0.2) and mortality (9% versus 10%; log-rank P=0.4) incidence compared with controls during follow-up. After adjustment for donor, recipient, and transplant factors, there no detectable difference in graft failure (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.95; 95% confidence interval, 0.77 to 1.18; P=0.6) or mortality (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.86; 95% confidence interval, 0.70 to 1.07; P=0.2) between National Kidney Registry and control recipients.ConclusionsEven after transplanting patients with greater risk factors for worse post-transplant outcomes, nationalized paired donation results in equivalent outcomes when compared with control living donor kidney transplant recipients.

Project description:PurposeTo determine the extent of variability in meniscus size and anthropometric data between donors (supply) and patients (demand), to evaluate potential factors that may contribute to size discrepancies, and to determine whether the discrepancies lead to longer patient wait times.MethodsLateral and medial meniscal measurements, anthropometric data, and time to match a donor graft were extracted from a tissue supplier database. The frequency and distribution of meniscus size were analyzed. Body mass index (BMI), relative meniscus area, body mass to meniscus area index, and height to meniscus area index were compared between patient and donor pools via χ2 tests and independent samples t-test. The effect of size on time to match was analyzed using analysis of variance and post-hoc Tukey test.ResultsThe lateral meniscus patient population showed a greater frequency of larger size requirements compared to the donor population (P < .001) and the medial meniscus patient population showed a higher frequency of smaller meniscus size requirements (P < .001). The medial meniscus analysis showed significantly smaller meniscus areas (P < .001) in the patient population contributing to the observed trend of an increased body mass to meniscus area index and height to meniscus area index. The time to match a donor meniscus was affected by the patient meniscus size.ConclusionsThis analysis demonstrates variations in frequency of meniscus sizes between donor and patient populations. This variation is attributed to differences in anthropometric data between patient and donor populations. This work identifies a mismatch between demand and supply for certain patient sizes contributing to longer times to match.Clinical relevanceThis work associated donor and patient mismatches with longer wait times. This can be useful for patient counseling as well as provide a framework to determine whether there are solutions within the current meniscus donor pool that can be used to meet this clinical need.

Project description:Delayed renal allograft survival (delayed graft function [DGF]) after deceased donor kidney transplantation is associated with an increased risk of allograft loss. Inflammatory response and apoptosis are associated with increased risk of DGF.Cross-sectional study.We first recruited 616 recipients of kidneys from 512 deceased kidney donors, and donor DNA was genotyped. These recipients, who were included in a prospective cohort study of 9 transplant centers in the Delaware Valley region, had their DGF outcome obtained through medical record abstraction. We then identified the recipient (n = 349) of the contralateral deceased kidney donor, if not part of the cohort, through the US Renal Data System registry. The final cohort consisted of 965 recipients of deceased donor kidneys from 512 donors.Donor single-nucleotide polymorphisms in genes for tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF), transforming growth factor beta1 (TGFB1), interleukin 10 (IL10), p53 (TP53), and heme oxygenase 1 (HMOX1).DGF, defined as the need for dialysis therapy in the first week posttransplantation. Secondary outcomes included acute rejection and estimated glomerular filtration rate.Information for DGF, acute rejection, and estimated glomerular filtration rate for recipients in the Delaware Valley Cohort was obtained through medical record abstraction. For other recipients, information for DGF was obtained from United Network for Organ Sharing forms and Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services claims in the US Renal Data System registry.No association was detected between the TGFB1, IL10, TP53, and HMOX1 genes and DGF. The G allele of the TNF polymorphism rs3093662 was associated with DGF in an adjusted analysis (odds ratio, 1.85 compared with A allele; 95% confidence interval, 1.16 to 2.96; P = 0.01). However, this association did not achieve statistical significance after adjusting for multiple comparisons.Inadequate sample size for infrequent genotypes and multiple comparisons.Because of the low frequency of donor single-nucleotide polymorphisms of interest, a larger sample size and replication are necessary to confirm these findings on the association of donor genotypes with DGF.
