Abstract:
:We have done a comparative analysis of two consecutive clinical trials at our center: the first in 56 patients who received blood transfusions from their prospective donors (DST group), and the second in 36 patients who received such transfusions while they were taking Imuran in an attempt to reduce the incidence of sensitization against the donor (IM + DST group). The major findings of our study are: (1) Imuran significantly (P less than .05) reduced the rate of sensitization from 27% to 11%; (2) Patients who had prolonged dialysis before entering one of these protocols were significantly more likely to become sensitized against their living donors, and had significantly higher sensitization against the leukocyte panel, although panel-reactive antibodies were not significantly changed by transfusions from the live donor; (3) MLC reactivity against the living donor was not significantly altered by donor transfusions, and was also not different for sensitized and transplanted patients; (4) Results of transplantation were excellent in both patient groups, with only two grafts and two patients lost in 68 transplants (actuarial one-year survival of 97% and 93% of patients alive and with functional grafts at one year in the DST and IM + DST groups, respectively); (5) Rejection episodes occurred in about 50% of each group, but were of a special type (DST-type rejection) in about 30% of the DST patients and 10% of the IM + DST patients (P = .07); (6) The probability of transplantation, and the results of transplantation after unsuccessful entry into one of these protocols was not adversely affected. We think that primarily because of the low rate of sensitization the IM + DST protocol is superior to the DST protocol. Both, however, are established clinical tools that have increased our clinical transplant volume by a large number of highly successful transplants.
