Abstract:
objective To evaluate the influence of HLA matching and new immunosuppressants on pre-venting acute rejection of renal allograft in sensitized recipients. Methods 751 recipients underwent renal transplantation were enrolled in this study including 46 sensitized recipients (study group) with PRA be-tween 10%-90% and 705 non-sensitized recipients (control group) with PRA less than 10% pretransplant. All patients in the study group received induction course (ATG 100 mg/d, 5-7 d) plus triple-immunosup-pressive therapy including FK506 + MMF + steroid. The rate of acute rejection and delayed graft function after renal transplantation was analyzed. The influence of HLA matching on preventing acute rejection was al-so evaluated. Results The acute rejection rate in the study group and control group was 30.43% and 19. 57%, respectively, (P < 0.05). The rate of delayed graft function was 60.86% in the study group, signifi-cantly higher than that of the control group (11.87%). There was no statistically difference of one-year pa-tient / graft survival rotes between the two groups. The average serum creatinin levels at one-year posttrans-plantation were similar between the two groups (130 mmol/dl in the study group and 125 mmol/di in the control group). The average loci of HLA matching in the study group (4.2) was significantly higher than that in the control group (2.8). The acute rejection rate in the study group was significantly higher when lo-ci of HLA mismatch ranging from 2-4 compared with loci of HLA mismatch less than 2. The acute rejection rate was significantly higher in the highly sensitized recipients (PRA ranging from 50% -90% pretmnsplant) than that in the less sensitized (PRA ranging from 10% to 20% pretransplant) in the study group. Patients with higher PRA level posttransplantation were prone to developing acute rejection. Conclusion HLA matching and new immunosuppressants can reduce the incidence of acute rejection in sensitized recipi-ents and increase the survival rate of patients and allografts.
