    Abstract Background: There is an increasing number of anti-HLA sensitized and highly sensitized renal transplant candidates on waiting lists, and the presence of donor-specific alloantibodies (DSAs) at the time of transplantation leads to acute and chronic antibody-mediated rejection (AMR). Acceptable short-term outcomes have been described, notably because of desensitization protocols, but mid- and long-term data are still required.
    Methods: Our high immunologic risk program included 95 patients with high peak or day 0 DSA levels (mean fluorescence intensity [MFI] > 3000) with a complement-dependent cytotoxicity-negative crossmatch, who received a posttransplant desensitization protocol starting at day 0 with high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin, plasma exchanges, and eventually rituximab. Their characteristics were compared with a control group including 39 patients with a lower immunologic risk (MFI between 500 and 3000 at day 0) who received the same posttransplant desensitization.
    Results: The median MFI of the immunodominant class I or II DSA in the peak or day 0 serum was 9421 (interquartile range, 4959-12 610). An AMR occurred during the first posttransplant year in 31 patients (32.6%), and at one year, the rate of chronic AMR was 39.5%. The 1-, 3-, 5- and 7-year death-censored allograft survival rates were 98%, 91%, 86%, and 78%, respectively, with concomitant recipient survival rates of 97%, 93%, 85%, and 79%, respectively.
    Conclusions: These results suggest that DSA-sensitized patients with high MFI levels can receive transplantation across the HLA-barrier, with the use of an intensified posttransplant immunosuppressive therapy starting at day 0 combined with close clinical, immunologic, and histologic monitoring.

    Abstract This multicenter, randomized trial aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of an early reduction in corticosteroid dose vs. long-term maintenance in Brazilian patients on an immunosuppressive regimen based on tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). In the control arm, prednisone was progressively reduced from days 8 to 90 and then kept for 12 months. In the experimental arm, prednisone was given for 12 months at the dose of 5 mg every other day. Endpoints were the composite occurrence of death, graft loss, or Banff III acute rejection, and safety. A total of 83 patients were enrolled, and 77 were analyzed for efficacy safety. One death occurred in each group. There were no cases of graft loss and one case of grade 3 acute rejection in the early reduction arm. There was no difference in the rate of the composite primary endpoint between both arms (p=0.215), and there were no significant differences between both arms in terms of adverse events. Except for higher incidence of hypertriglyceridemia levels among patients in the regular-dose arm, there were no significant differences between both arms in terms of adverse events. The results of this trial suggest that early reduction of corticosteroid can be feasible and safe within a timeframe of 12 months in patients receiving tacrolimus and MMF.
