Listing Malignant Melanoma Patients for Renal Transplantation.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Melanoma is an immune responsive malignancy and the need for immunosuppression for successful transplantation may lead to recurrent disease. The recommended waiting time is unknown with various groups recommending anywhere from no wait to 5 years. METHODS:In this single-center, retrospective observational study all kidney transplant recipients' charts from 1991 to 2015 were reviewed for a diagnosis of melanoma before transplantation. The charts were reviewed for the clinical characteristics of melanoma pre transplantation, induction immunosuppression, maintenance immunosuppression, graft function, death, and recurrence of melanoma. RESULTS:Thirteen patients with a history of melanoma underwent kidney transplantation during this period. Recipients had been in remission for an average of 7.0 years (range, 10 months to 20 years, median 6 years). Approximately 61.5% received a living donor transplant, antithymocyte globulin was administered in 23.1% of recipients, and the remaining 76.9% received basiliximab. Melanoma recurred in 1 patient (7.7%). Maintenance immunosuppression varied, but only 2 patients remained on standard triple therapy with prednisone, calcineurin inhibitor, and antimetabolite therapy. Average follow-up time since transplant was 7.5 years, with 1 patient death 9 years post transplant from sepsis. CONCLUSION:In conclusion, with our center demonstrates safety of kidney transplantation in patients with a prior history of localized melanoma and shorter waiting time. In malignant melanoma stage 0 and 1, waiting the recommended 5 years from the time of remission to kidney transplantation should be reconsidered.
