Abstract

Alemtuzumab and reduced dosages of tacrolimus and mycophenolate without long-term steroids can achieve low rates of rejection and excellent graft and patient survival without excessive risk of infection or malignancy. There is still a need for large randomized trials with long-term follow-up to determine its exact role in solid organ transplantation.
