C1-inhibitor for prophylaxis of xenograft rejection after pig to cynomolgus monkey kidney transplantation

Abstract

We conclude that, in our model, supplemental C1-INH therapy together with a standard immunosuppressive regimen can be helpful for prevention of xenograft rejection in a pig to primate kidney xenotransplantation setting. The optimal dose and duration of C1-INH treatment, however, has yet to be determined.
