Eculizumab reverses the potentially fatal effects of kidney graft reperfusion injury

Abstract: Half an hour after reperfusion, the kidney, transplanted to the infant from an adult brain dead standard criteria donor, became flabby and acquired blue color. Hyperacute rejection was suspected as a consequence of false negative cross match, and eculizumab was administered with the purpose to treat antibody-mediated injury, with fast and clear effect. The patient's blood was tested for donor-specific antibodies on the next day, and results were negative. We attribute graft damage to reperfusion injury and exp… Show more

“…In addition, a multicenter trial of eculizumab to prevent IRI, as measured by DGF, also failed to demonstrate a reduction in the incidence of DGF. Previously, we described a case of catastrophic kidney reperfusion injury that was completely reversed following a single dose of eculizumab . This case led us to initiate a randomized trial of eculizumab to prevent IRI in pediatric kidney transplant recipients.…”

“…Previously, we described a case of catastrophic kidney reperfusion injury that was completely reversed following a single dose of eculizumab. 13 This case led us to initiate a randomized trial of eculizumab to prevent IRI in pediatric kidney transplant recipients. We hypothesized that a single pre-operative dose of eculizumab at a dose of 700 mg/m 2 would reduce IRI, result in a lower serum creatinine, and might be beneficial to graft survival, late graft function, and graft morphology.…”

“…Активация комплемента также стимулирует хемокиновую продукцию. Исследования показывают, что специфический антагонист рецептора С5а уменьшает выброс CXCхемокинов и тем самым уменьшает нейтрофильную инфильтрацию на 50% по сравнению с контрольной группой в экспериментальной модели ишемии/реперфузии [26,27].…”

“…Однако эти методы достаточно неселективны и механизм их действия полностью не изучен, в результате чего клиническое применение не всегда сопровождается ожидаемым эффектом. В то же время существуют в большинстве своем экспериментальные работы применения различных биологических агентов для снижения тяжести ишемического повреждения [27,[46][47][48][49]. Однако эти препараты пока еще не являются рутинным методом коррекции ишемического и реперфузионного повреждения трансплантата.…”

“…В декабре 2012 г. мы неожиданно обнаружили мощное действие Экулизумаба на течение реперфузионной травмы, когда при трансплантации трупной почки полуторагодовалому мальчику ввели препарат в операционной, заподозрив сверхострое отторжение. Последующие твердофазные иммунологические исследования опровергли наше предположение о сверхостром отторжении, однако быстрое восстановление трансплантата не оставило никаких сомнений по поводу влияния Экулизумаба на реперфузионное повреждение [8].…”
