The introduction of the Luminex Crossmatch assay (LumXm) which uses Luminex bead technology, consists of extracting the donor's Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) molecules from their lymphocytes, and binding them to fluorescent beads that are put in contact with recipient's serum. HLA donor-specific antibodies (DSA) are detected using a fluorescent conjugate. The goal of our study is to determine the benefits of using LumXm in a renal transplantation algorithm.We tested 78 recipients' sera using the LumXm, and the results were compared with the Luminex single antigen bead assay (SAB) for all sera, as well as the Flow Cytometry Crossmatch (FCXM) for 46 sera. We compared our results with those of SAB using 3 cutoffs, the first being the manufacturer's criteria where sensitivity and specificity were at 62.5% and 91.3% respectively for HLA class 1, and 88.5% and 50.0% respectively for HLA class 2. When using the third cutoff criteria (≥2 Adjusted values + MFI [Mean fluorescence intensity] >500 + Neg MFI < 500), the sensitivity increased to 69.0% for HLA class 1 and decreased to 84.0% for HLA class 2, while the specificity increased for HLA class 1 and 2. When comparing with FCXM, the 3 assays agreed in 55.8% of results for class 1 and 2 alike. However, major discrepancies were found for two groups in HLA class 1 and one in HLA class 2. The LumXm when used with other techniques to overcome its' weak points, can provide an interesting insight into the patient's HLA-DSA profile.
