Mycophenolate Monotherapy in HLA-Matched Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Case Series of 20 Patients.

Unlabelled: The ideal minimizing strategy for maintenance immunosuppression in HLA-matched kidney transplant recipients (KTR) is unknown. We hypothesized that mycophenolate (MPA) monotherapy is a safe and effective approach for maintenance therapy in this group of KTR.

Methods: Data were abstracted for 6-antigen HLA-matched KTR between 1994 and 2013.

Acute Rejection in 6-Antigen HLA-Matched Kidney Transplant Recipients: Risk Factors and Outcomes from the Wisconsin Allograft Recipient Database (WisARD).

Acute rejection in human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched kidney transplant recipients is uncommon and the mechanisms involved are not well understood. Data from 6-antigen HLA-matched recipients transplanted between 1994 and 2014 were analyzed to identify the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes associated with biopsy-proven acute rejection (BPAR). A total of 278 HLA-matched recipients were identified, of which, 155 (55.
