Abstract

Rituximab (RTX) therapy for primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis recurrence after kidney transplantation (KT) has been extensively debated. We aimed to assess the benefit of adding RTX to plasmapheresis (PP), corticosteroids, and calcineurin inhibitors (standard of care, SOC). We identified 148 adult patients who received KT in 12/2004-12/2018 at 21 French centers: 109 received SOC (Group 1, G1), and 39 received immediate RTX along with SOC (Group 2, G2). In G1, RTX was introduced after 28 days of SOC in the event of failure (G1a, n = 19) or PP withdrawal (G1b, n = 12). Complete remission (CR) was achieved in 46.6% of patients, and partial remission (PR) was achieved in 33.1%. The 10-year graft survival rates were 64.7% and 17.9% in responders and nonresponders, respectively. Propensity score analysis showed no difference in CR+PR rates between G1 (82.6%) and G2 (71.8%) (p = .08). Following the addition of RTX (G1a), 26.3% of patients had CR, and 31.6% had PR. The incidence of severe infections was similar between patients treated with and without RTX. In multivariable analysis, infection episodes were associated with hypogammaglobulinemia

Abstract

BACKGROUND: COVID-19 has been associated with high morbidity and mortality in kidney transplant recipients. However, risk factors for COVID-19 disease in patients with kidney transplants remain poorly defined. METHODS: We enrolled patients who underwent kidney transplantation and were actively followed up in two hospitals in Paris on March 1st, 2020. Patients were screened for baseline and transplant characteristics, functional parameters, comorbidities, and immunosuppressive therapies. COVID-19 disease was assessed. Patients were followed up during the pandemic until April 30th, 2020 by the COVID-19 SLS KT survey program, including teleconsulting, at-home monitoring for patients with COVID-19, and a dedicated phone hotline platform. RESULTS: Among 1216 patients with kidney transplants enrolled, 66 (5%) patients were identified with COVID-19 disease, which is higher than the incidence observed in the general population in France (0.3%). Their mean age was 56.4±12.5 years, and 37 (56%) patients were men. The following factors were independently associated with COVID-19 disease: non-White ethnicity (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 2.17; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.23 to 3.78; P=0.007), obesity (OR, 2.19; 95% CI, 1.19 to 4.05; P=0.01), asthma and chronic pulmonary disease (OR, 3.09; 95% CI, 1.49 to 6.41; P=0.002), and diabetes (OR, 3.33; 95% CI, 1.92 to 5.77; P

Abstract

International audience; End stage kidney disease increase the risk of COVID-19 related death but how the kidney replacement strategy should be adapted during the pandemic is unknown. Chronic hemodialysis makes social distancing difficult to achieve. Alternatively, kidney transplantation could increase the severity of COVID-19 due to therapeutic immunosuppression and contribute to saturation of intensive care units. For these reasons, kidney transplantation was suspended in France during the first epidemic wave. Here, we retrospectively evaluated this strategy by comparing the overall and COVID-19 related mortality in kidney transplant recipients and candidates over the last three years. Cross-interrogation of two national registries for the period 1 March and 1 June 2020, identified 275 deaths among the 42812 kidney transplant recipients and 144 deaths among the 16210 candidates. This represents an excess of deaths for both populations, as compared with the same period the two previous years (mean of two previous years: 253 in recipients and 112 in candidates). This difference was integrally explained by COVID-19, which accounted for 44% (122) and 42% (60) of the deaths in recipients and candidates, respectively. Taking into account the size of the two populations and the geographical heterogeneity of virus circulation, we found that the excess of risk of death due to COVID-19 was similar for recipients and candidates in high viral risk area but four-fold higher for candidates in the low viral risk area. Thus, in case of a second epidemic wave, kidney transplantation should be suspended in high viral risk areas but maintained outside those areas, both to reduce the excess of deaths of candidates and avoid wasting precious resources.

Abstract

Background The access of obese patients to kidney transplantation is limited despite several studies showing that obese transplant recipients had a better survival rate than those undergoing dialysis. The aim of this study was to compare patient and graft survival rates and post-renal transplant complications in obese patients and non-obese patients and to assess the effect of pre-transplant weight loss in obese patients on transplant outcomes. Methods We carried out a prospective cohort study using two French registries, the Renal Epidemiology and Information Network and CRISTAL, on 7270 kidney transplant patients between 2008 and 2014 in France. We compared obese patients with non-obese patients and obese patients who lost more than 10% of weight before the transplant (obese WL and obese nWL). Results The mean BMI in our obese patients was 32 kg/m2. Graft survival was lower in obese patients than in non-obese patients {hazard ratio (HR) = 1.40, [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.09; 1.78], P = 0.007}, whereas patient survival was similar [HR = 0.94, (95% CI 0.73; 1.23), P = 0.66]. Graft survival was significantly lower in obese WL than in obese nWL [HR = 2.17, (1.02; 4.63), P = 0.045], whereas patient survival was similar in the two groups [HR = 0.79, (0.35; 1.77), P = 0.56]. Conclusion Grade 1 obesity does not seem to be a risk factor for excess mortality after kidney transplantation and should not be an obstacle to having access to a graft. Weight loss before a kidney transplant in these patients should not be essential for registration on waiting list.

Abstract

International audience; There are no studies which have compared the risk of severe Covid-19 and related mortality between transplant recipients and non-transplant patients. We enrolled two groups of patients hospitalized for Covid-19, i.e., kidney transplant recipients from the French Registry of Solid Organ Transplant (n=306) and a single-center cohort of non-transplant patients (n=795). An analysis was performed among subgroups matched for age and risk factors for severe Covid-19 or mortality. Severe Covid-19 was defined as admission (or transfer) to an intensive care unit, need for mechanical ventilation, or death.Transplant recipients were younger and had more comorbidities compared to non-transplant patients. They presented with higher creatinine levels and developed more episodes of acute kidney injury. After matching, the 30-day cumulative incidence of severe Covid-19 did not differ between KTR and non-transplant patients; however, 30-day Covid-19-related mortality was significantly higher in KTR (17.9% versus 11.4%, respectively, p=0.038). Age >60 years, cardiovascular disease, dyspnea, fever, lymphopenia, and C-reactive protein (CRP) were associated with severe Covid-19 in univariate analysis, whereas transplant status and serum creatinine levels were not. Age >60 years, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, CRP >60 mg/L, lymphopenia, kidney transplant status (HR=1.55), and creatinine level >115 µmol/L (HR=2.32) were associated with Covid-19-related mortality in univariate analysis. In multivariable analysis, cardiovascular disease, dyspnea, and fever were associated with severe disease, whereas age >60 years, cardiovascular disease, dyspnea, fever, and creatinine level>115 µmol/L retained their independent associations with mortality. Kidney transplant recipients had a higher Covid-19-related mortality compared to non-transplant hospitalized patients.

Abstract

Notwithstanding the ongoing coronavirus disease-2019 (Covid-19) pandemic, information on its clinical presentation and prognosis in recipients of a kidney transplant remain scanty. The aim of this registry-based observational study was to explore characteristics and clinical outcomes of recipients of kidney transplants included in the French nationwide Registry of Solid Organ Transplant Recipients with Covid-19. Covid-19 was diagnosed in symptomatic patients who had a positive PCR assay for SARS-CoV-2 or having typical lung lesions on imaging. Clinical and laboratory characteristics, management of immunosuppression, treatment for Covid-19, and clinical outcomes (hospitalization, admission to intensive care unit, mechanical ventilation, or death) were recorded. Risk factors for severe disease or death were determined. Of the 279 patients, 243 were admitted to hospital and 36 were managed at home. The median age of hospitalized patients was 61.6 years; most had comorbidities (hypertension, 90.1%; overweight, 63.8%; diabetes, 41.3%; cardiovascular disease, 36.2%). Fever, cough, dyspnea, and diarrhea were the most common symptoms on admission. Laboratory findings revealed mild inflammation frequently accompanied by lymphopenia. Immunosuppressive drugs were generally withdrawn (calcineurin inhibitors: 28.7%; antimetabolites: 70.8%). Treatment was mainly based on hydroxychloroquine (24.7%), antiviral drugs (7.8%), and tocilizumab (5.3%). Severe Covid-19 occurred in 106 patients (46%). Forty-three hospitalized patients died (30-day mortality 22.8%). Multivariable analysis identified overweight, fever, and dyspnea as independent risk factors for severe disease, whereas age over 60 years, cardiovascular disease, and dyspnea were independently associated with mortality. Thus, Covid-19 in recipients of kidney transplants portends a high mortality rate. Proper management of immunosuppression and tailored treatment of this population remain challenging., Graphical abstract

Abstract

Background and Aims The indication of rituximab (RTX) in the treatment of primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) recurrence after kidney transplantation (KT) remains controversial. The objective of our study was to evaluate the benefit and tolerability of adding RTX to the standard of care (SOC) comprising plasmapheresis (PP), corticosteroids, and high-dose anticalcineurins for the treatment of FSGS recurrence after KT. Method This retrospective, multicenter study reports on 148 patients, transplanted between 31 December 2004 and 31 December 2018, aged 39.9 + 13.4 years, who developed FSGS recurrence at 7 [3–23] days. In all 109 patients received a SOC (Group 1). RTX was introduced in this group after more than 28 days of SOC for failure or for therapeutic intensification (n = 19, Group 1a), or for early discontinuation of PP (n = 12, Group 1b); 39 patients received RTX associated at the outset with SOC (Group 2). Results We observed 46.6% complete remission (CR) and 33.1% partial remission (PR). Ten-year graft survival was 65.6% [51.4–76.6] and 13.4% [3.4–30.0] in responders and non-responders respectively. There was no difference in CR + PR rate between G1 (82.5%) and G2 (71.8%), p = 0.08, confirmed by propensity score +4.3% (95% CI [−9.0%-17.5%], p = 0.53). Following addition of RTX (Group 1a), we observed a CR rate of 26.3% and a PR rate of 31.6%. Patients with and without RTX experienced similar rejection rates (18.6% and 28.2%, p = 0.17) and infection rates (71.4% and 79.5%, p = 0.40). In multivariate analysis, the infections were associted with hypogammaglobulinemia Conclusion Rituximab could be used in cases of SOC failure or in remission patients for early weaning of plasmapheresis, without increasing infectious risk.

Abstract

Post-kidney transplantation outcomes in obese patients remain uncertain. The aim of this study is to compare patient and graft survival and post-transplant complications in obese patients and non-obese patients. We performed a retrospective analysis of a sample of 245kidney transplantations performed between 2008 and 2014 in Clermont-Ferrand. Obese patients and non-obese patients have been compared. Then we compared obese patients who have lost at least 5% of their weight (OPP) with obese patients who did not lose weight (OPS), and non-obese patients who have lost at least 5% of their weight (NOPP) with non-obese patients who did not lose weight (NOPS). Patient survival at 5years is similar between obese and non obese (84.06% versus 90.96%; P=0.49), between OPP and OPS (88.89% versus 81.82%; P=0.34) and between NOPP and NOPS (89.19% versus 91.05%; P=0.73). At 5years, graft survival is also comparable between obese and non obese (88.82% versus 81.86%; P=0.58), between OPP and OPS (85.56% versus 91.06%; P=0.98) and between NOPP and NOPS (88% versus 80.12%; P=0.31). The length of hospitalization and the rate of complications seem similar between obese and non obese and between OPP and OPS. Post-transplantation outcomes are similar between obese and non-obese patients and a weight loss for obese patients does not seem to decrease the risk of post-transplant complication.
