Zusammenfassung: | Blockade of costimulation and adhesion signaling is an attractive approach to interfere with graft rejection
Between January 1997 and May 1999, forty adults having benign liver diseases were included in a prospective, randomized study comparing tacrolimus plus low-dose short-term steroids without (n=20, TAC group) or with a 10-day course of antihuman CD2 monoclonal antibody (n=20, BTI group).
At day 7, histological rejection expressed by mean Banff scores (2.3+/-1.6 vs. 5.4+/-1.6 in the TAC group; Por=6) (0 vs. 10 [50%] in the TAC group; P |
