13 Anti CD25 mab induction meta analysis: acute rejection Adu et al. BMJ 2003

14 Anti CD25 mabinduction meta analysis: Graft Failure Adu et al. BMJ 2003

15 Another Anti CD25 mab induction meta analysis: 24 Studies Anti CD25mAb versus Placebo Death Censored Graft Failure at 1 year (24 studies) Reduced Overall Graft failure Reduced Death No difference Webster AC et al. Transplantation 2004; Webster AC et al. Cochrane Review 2010

71 In Summary

72 So what is the best induction immunosuppression regimen? 1] Anti CD25 mab induction reduces rejection and graft failure 2] ATG and Campath further reduce rejection but not graft failure, and an increase in toxicity 3] The spectre of late rejection and antibody-associated rejection remains with Campath 4] Further data on Rituximab required 5] Tacrolimus reduces rejection compared with Ciclosporin 6] This may not translate into a clinically relevant reduction in graft survival in low dose setting 7] CNI avoidance with mtori is fraught 8] Newer Agents improve graft survival and may herald breakthrough of true CNI avoidance 9] MMF reduces rejection and graft failure compared with Azathioprine 10] Steroid avoidance is associated with increased rates of rejection 11] Metabolic complications of 5mg prednisolone are slight / manageable
