Since acute rejections are a risk factor for chronic graft loss, their effective reduction might have a positive effect on long term allograft survival. So far data is spares to prove this hypothesis and 10-year follow up on basiliximab induction therapy is not available. In our center, 41 patients were enrolled in the multicenter trial CHIB201 in 1995/96 comparing basiliximab vs no induction therapy after renal transplantation. We retrospectively analyzed the outcome of these patients after 10 years. The main reason for patient death with functioning graft were infectious complications (basiliximab: 3/20, placebo 1/19), 21% of all patients developed cancer without an obvious correlation to specific immunosuppression. Death censored 10-year graft survival was equivalent in both groups: 65% in the basiliximab and 68% in the placebo group with a mean s-creatinine-clearance of 60 and 44 ml/min. In this small study patient and graft survival was equivalent 10 years after transplantation comparing basiliximab induction therapy and placebo.Keywords: basiliximab, induction therapy, long term graft survival, renal transplantation Martina KochThomas BeckerRainer LueckMichael NeippJuergen KlempnauerBjoern NashanDove Medical PressarticleMedicine (General)R5-920ENBiologics: Targets & Therapy, Vol 2009, Iss default, Pp 51-56 (2009) |
