Steroid Withdrawal Using Everolimus in ABO-Incompatible Kidney Transplant Recipients With Post-Transplant Diabetes Mellitus.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:The effectiveness of everolimus (EVR) for ABO-incompatible (ABOi) kidney transplantation is unknown. We evaluated outcomes of conversion from steroid to EVR in ABOi kidney transplant recipients. METHODS:We performed a retrospective observational cohort study of 33 de novo consecutive adult ABOi living donor kidney transplant recipients. Desensitization was performed using 0 to 4 sessions of plasmapheresis and 1 to 2 doses of 100 mg rituximab according to the anti-A/B antibody titer. ABOi recipients were administered a combination of tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and methylprednisolone. Diabetic patients were converted from methylprednisolone to EVR at 1 to 15 months post-transplantation to prevent diabetes progression. Graft outcomes, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels, and cytomegalovirus infection rates were compared between the EVR (n = 11) and steroid (n = 22) groups. RESULTS:Mean postoperative duration was 814 and 727 days in the EVR and steroid groups, respectively (P = .65). Between the 2 groups, graft survival rate (100% vs 95.5%, P > .99), acute rejection rate (9.1% vs 18.2%, P = .64), and serum creatinine levels (1.46 mg/dL vs 1.68 mg/dL, P = .66) were comparable. Although HbA1c levels were elevated in the steroid group (5.47%, 5.87%; P = .003), no significant deterioration was observed in the EVR group without additional insulin administration (6.10%, 6.47%; P = .21). Cytomegalovirus infection rate was significantly lower in the EVR group than in the steroid group (18.2% vs 63.6%, P = .026). CONCLUSION:Conversion from steroid to EVR in ABOi kidney transplant recipients maintained excellent graft outcomes and avoided diabetes progression and cytomegalovirus infection.
