Circulating Cell-Free DNA as a Non-Invasive Marker of Pediatric Heart Transplant Rejection and Immunosuppressive Treatment

Abstract: Abstracts S75dd-cfDNA levels between 13 rejection, 14 post-rejection, and 217 non-rejection samples (R vs NR, p= 0.96), and no significant difference in dd-cfDNA levels between biopsy grades (132 OR, 103 1R, and 8 2R samples; p= 0.85 for OR vs ≥ 2R). Of interest was the observation that dd-cfDNA levels rose prior to rejection in 3/5 patients, and decreased post-rejection in 5/8 patients; and patients with only Grade 0 biopsies had consistently low dd-cfDNA levels. Conclusion: With approximately half of this p… Show more
