Avoidance of cyclosporine in renal transplantation: effects of daclizumab, mycophenolate mofetil, and steroids.
Cyclosporine (CsA) has been implicated in both acute and chronic graft dysfunction. The addition of humanized IL-2 receptor antibody daclizumab (DZB) to CsA-based immunosuppression decreases the rate of acute renal transplant rejection. Therefore, 45 patients were evaluated in an immunosuppressive protocol that included DZB, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and steroids without CsA. This was a pros...
متن کاملCyclosporine nephrotoxicity.
After more than 20 years of cyclosporine use its nephrotoxicity remains a significant clinical problem. Cyclosporine-induced renal injury has been described in solid organs recipients and in patients treated for autoimmune diseases. It is manifested in 2 distinct and well characterized forms, acute nephrotoxicity and chronic nephrotoxicity. This communication reviews the current literature anal...
متن کاملA randomized exploratory trial of steroid avoidance in renal transplant patients treated with everolimus and low-dose cyclosporine.
BACKGROUND Everolimus and cyclosporine exhibit synergistic immunosuppressive activity when given in combination. In this randomized trial, we explored whether the use of everolimus associated with low-dose cyclosporine could allow an early avoidance of steroids in de novo renal transplant recipients. METHODS In this exploratory multicenter trial, 65 out of 133 patients treated with basilixima...
متن کاملIncreased cyclosporine concentrations in the absence of cyclosporine administration.
A 9-year-old girl was admitted to our hospital with juvenile metachromatic leukodystrophy (arylsulfatase A deficiency). Symptoms of this lysosomal storage disease, such as decreased school performance and compromised motor skills, had started 1 year earlier. She underwent bone marrow transplantation from a matched unrelated donor after receiving conditioning with fludarabine, treosulfan, and th...
متن کاملCanine liver transplantation under Nva2-cyclosporine versus cyclosporine.
The immunosuppressive qualities and other features of a new cyclosporine (CsA) analogue, Nva2-cyclosporine (Nva2-CsA) were examined using canine orthotopic liver allografts. The mean survival time was 11.8 +/- 9.6 (SD) days in dogs without treatment, 60.8 +/- 4.4 days with Nva2-CsA and 65.1 +/- 33.0 days with CsA. Functional abnormalities indicating toxic side effects were not noted either with...
