Efficacy of plasmapheresis on donor-specific antibody reduction by HLA specificity in post–kidney transplant recipients

BACKGROUND: Donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) to HLA antigens can cause acute antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) after kidney transplantation (Txp). Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) has been used for AMR treatment; however, DSA reduction rates are inconsistent. We investigated DSA reduction rates by...
