Anti Phospholipase A2 Receptor 1 Antibodies and Membranous Nephropathy Recurrence After Kidney Transplantation.

Introduction: Membranous nephropathy can lead to end-stage kidney disease, for which kidney transplantation is the preferred therapy. However, the disease often relapses, which can impact allograft survival.

Methods: We conducted a prospective multicenter study in France involving 72 patients with membranous nephropathy who were awaiting and then underwent kidney transplantation.

Prediction of Vaccine Response and Development of a Personalized Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination Strategy in Kidney Transplant Recipients: Results from a Large Single-Center Study.

Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) displays marked inter-individual variations in magnitude of immune responses to anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. The aim of this large single-center study was to identify the predictive factors for serological response to the mRNA-1273 vaccine in KTRs. We also devised a score to optimize prediction with the goal of implementing a personalized vaccination strategy.

Breakthrough COVID-19 cases despite prophylaxis with 150 mg of tixagevimab and 150 mg of cilgavimab in kidney transplant recipients.

The cilgavimab-tixagevimab combination retains a partial in vitro neutralizing activity against the current SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (omicron BA.1, BA.1.
