Many lectures by the Paris Transplant Group are planned to present the ongoing research to the French transplant community. The presentations will cover:
  • The latest results of clinical research, including the TRANSFORM study carried out with Novartis,
  • Research on transplant prognosis for improved patient follow-up, including the iBox algorithm.
  • Advances made in understanding the mechanisms at work in the event of rejection or unsuccessful transplantation. 
This research covers kidney, lung and other transplantation.

Prediction system for risk of allograft loss in patients receiving kidney transplants: international derivation and validation study

9/21/2019

 
Picture
The first universal algorithm for predicting the risk of kidney transplant loss, named iBox, has been developed, validated and just made public by teams from Europe and the US.

​
The iBox is designed for clinicians to personalize and improve patient follow-up. The iBox could also accelerate the development of new immunosuppressive treatments by reducing the duration of clinical trials and defining a valid surrogate endpoint.
Chronic kidney disease affects 1 out of 10 people worldwide and is steadily increasing. When it reaches end-stage renal disease and endangers the lives of patients, dialysis or transplantation is required. ​

Disparities in Acceptance of Deceased Donor Kidneys Between the United States and France and Estimated Effects of Increased US Acceptance

8/26/2019

 
Picture
New publication in JAMA Internal Medicine: The first international analysis of renal transplant patient data shows that a change in allocation criteria in the United States could benefit patients on the waiting list. Thousands more kidneys could be transplanted each year if the United States used, as France does, kidneys from older donors.
Nearly 5,000 people in the United States and 3,500 in Europe die each year waiting for a kidney transplant. Yet, over the same period, in the United States, more than 3,500 available kidneys were discarded. The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Internal Medicine today published our results, obtained with the help of an international team, that compared the use of kidneys available in the United States and France between 2004 and 2014. ​
Using a new approach based on validated analytical methods and computer simulations, this work revealed that French transplant centres are much more likely to transplant kidneys from older donors than their American counterparts, and that this effectively increases the number of patients transplanted.
