FK506 rescue therapy for ongoing rejection after antilymphocyte preparationsa
| Type of antilymphocyte preparation |
n | Graft salvage | (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
| None | 16 | 9 | 56% |
| OKT3 only | 33 | 26 | 79% |
| ALG only | 1 | 1 | 100% |
| OKT3 + ALG/ATG/ATGAM | 27 | 21 | 78% |
| Total(OKT3/ALG/ATG/ATGAM) | 61 | 48 | 79%b |
The median interval between last dose of antilymphocyte preparation and FK506 conversion was 20 days.
P = 0.13 compared with no antilymphocyte preparation.
