Humoral Response to the Influenza A H1N1/09 Monovalent AS03-Adjuvanted Vaccine in Immunocompromised Patients

TL;DR: Influenza A H1N1/09 vaccine elicited a similar antibody response in HIV-infected individuals and in control subjects, whereas SOT recipients had an overall lower response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Low levels of human leukocyte antigen donor-specific antibodies detected by solid phase assay before transplantation are frequently clinically irrelevant.

TL;DR: It is concluded that, based on the presence of pretransplantation DSA, post-transplantation acute rejections episodes could not have been predicted and more work should be performed to better delineate the precise clinical significance of detecting low titers of DSA before transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms on cyclosporine intracellular concentration in transplant recipients.

TL;DR: This is the first report demonstrating that ABCB1 polymorphisms influence cyclosporine intracellular concentration, which is significantly higher than on blood concentration (P<0.002), and may therefore modulate cyclOSporine immunosuppressive activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

CYP3A7, CYP3A5, CYP3A4, and ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms, cyclosporine concentration, and dose requirement in transplant recipients.

TL;DR: The administration of a CYP3A genotype-dependent cyclosporine starting dose should be tested prospectively in a randomized controlled clinical trial to assess whether it leads to an improvement of the patients outcome after transplantation, with adequate immunosuppression and decreased toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI

New treatments for acute humoral rejection of kidney allografts

TL;DR: Therapeutic strategies that include combinations of plasmapheresis (or immunoadsorption), tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil and/or intravenous immunoglobulins, as well as rituximab or splenectomy, have been recently used to successfully treat AHR, but the optimal protocol still remains to be defined.
