FK778 and FK506 combination therapy to control acute rejection after rat liver allotransplantation.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:In organ transplantation, several immunosuppressants are currently used to control graft rejection. Clinically, no single immunosuppressive agent can completely prevent posttransplantation immunoreaction; thus, combination therapy is usually performed. Novel agents with more powerful immunosuppressive activity and less toxicity need to be developed. METHODS:Lewis rat livers were orthotopically transplanted into Brown-Norway recipients. FK778 was administered orally from day 0 to day 6 to prevent acute rejection and from day 7 to day 13 to rescue ongoing rejection. To assess the combined effects, recipients were treated with intramuscular injection of FK506 and oral administration of FK778 from day 0 to day 6. Blood chemistry and histopathologic findings were measured to determine the patient's general condition and the graft condition. Allospecific antibodies were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. The FK778 trough concentration was examined by using high-performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS:The acute immune response was suppressed by FK778 alone in a dose-dependent manner. The optimal FK778 dosage was determined to be 20 mg/kg per day, because adverse effects (weight loss and intestinal bleeding) occurred at 30 mg/kg per day. FK778 treatment from day 7 to day 13 rescued liver grafts from ongoing rejection. The intramuscular FK506 (0.125 mg/kg per day) injection and the oral FK778 (20 mg/kg per day) gavages suppressed acute liver graft rejection effectively and maintained better graft condition compared with monotherapy. CONCLUSIONS.: FK778 treatment effectively prevented acute rejection and rescued ongoing rejection after liver transplantation. The optimal dosage was determined to be 20 mg/kg per day. Combination therapy with FK506 was more beneficial than FK778 monotherapy.
