- W2074437846 abstract "Encouraging results in transplantation of other solid organs led to investigation of the use of tacrolimus in lung transplantation as a salvage immunosuppressant in persistent acute rejection.The incidence and severity of acute rejection and the number of steroid pulses were analyzed in 20 lung recipients who were converted from a cyclosporine- to a tacrolimus-based immunosuppressive regimen because of refractory biopsy-proven acute rejection.Tacrolimus was started 12.0 +/- 13.0 months after transplantation, and the mean follow-up was 25.0 +/- 13.7 months. After shifting to tacrolimus, a significant decline was observed in both the number of acute rejections per patient (3.0 +/- 1.56 to 0.85 +/- 1.14, p < 0.0001), and the incidence of acute rejection per 100 patient-days (1.52 +/- 0.99 to 0.14 +/- 0.21, p < 0.0001). Furthermore, the average histologic grade of rejection decreased from 1.9 +/- 0.8 to 0.4 +/- 0.5 (p < 0.0001). Methylprednisolone pulses similarly decreased from 1.9 +/- 1.3/patient to 0.3 +/- 0.7/patient (p < 0.0001). During cyclosporine immunosuppression, the mean forced expiratory volume in 1 second decreased to 84.4% +/- 13.3% of individual best value. The average lung function parameters were stable 3 months after the change of medication, and then began to improve. After an average follow-up of 36.5 +/- 19.2 months, 2 patients have developed bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (one has Stage 1 and one has Stage 3).Conversion to a tacrolimus-based immunosuppressive regimen for refractory acute lung rejection is associated with reduced incidence and severity of acute rejection episodes, steroid sparing, and stabilization or improvement of pulmonary function." @default.
