Therapeutic apheresis in renal transplantation; current practices

Abstract: Apheresis is an important treatment modality for the removal of pathologic antibodies and circulating proteins in kidney transplantation. The use of apheresis has been shown to be a necessary preconditioning component in ABO incompatible kidney transplant. Removal of pathologic anti-A and anti-B antibodies has been accomplished with a variety of apheresis modalities including plasma exchange, fractional plasma exchange, and immunoabsorption techniques. Using these modalities in conjunction with potent modern i… Show more

“…In our center, plasmapheresis is performed if the postoperative isoagglutinin titer exceeds twice the preoperative level or if the titer does not reach 1:32 before surgery. Although plasmapheresis has been reported to reduce the occurrence of rejection after KT by eliminating preexisting antibodies, it remains unclear whether it is more effective in patients with high-sensitivity DSA or ABO-i 23 , 24 . Further research is warranted to investigate the specific impact of additional plasmapheresis in the context of high-sensitivity DSA and ABO-i, in order to obtain a more accurate analysis.…”

“…Daily plasmapheresis, using 1.5 volume exchange with 5 percent albumin replacement with each plasmapheresis session, is the most commonly employed method in ABO-I transplantation in the United States to achieve the target titer ≤ 1:16[ 28 ]. Partial substitution with fresh frozen plasma could be used in case of abnormal coagulation profile[ 29 ].…”

“…Az AHR adekvát kezelése a protokoll szerinti ismétlődéssel végzett plazmaferézis, intravénás immunglobulin (IVIG) adásá-val kiegészítve, illetve kezelésrefrakter esetekben rituximab (rMaB; B-sejt-depletáló monoklonális antitest) adá-sa. Ennek modernebb változata az immunadszorpcióval kombinált rMaB-kezelés [31]. A nemzetközi közlések már a PF + IVIG + rMaB kezelést sem tartják elég effektívnek: Waiser és mtsai bortezomib (plazmasejtek apoptózisát indukáló, proteoszómagátló) adását találták haté-konynak rMaB helyett [32].…”
