  1. Strategies to improve long-term outcomes after kidney transplantation Miha Arnol 5 th Congres of Nephrology in BIH, Tuzla, October 18, 2019

  2. Kidney transplant medicine A story of success… A story of barriers… A story of how modern scientific medicine overcame several barriers

  3. Long-term survival of ESKD patients Kidney Tx vs. Dialysis vs. General population EU cohort: 2012-2016 ERA-EDTA Registry Annual Report 2016, Amsterdam 2018

  4. Challenges in transplant medicine

  5. Challenges in transplant medicine ◼ Lack of (appropriate) donors and organs ◼ Adverse events of immunosuppression - metabolic, cardiovascular, infections, cancer ◼ Monitoring of patients/grafts is inaccurate ◼ No effective treatments for (chronic) rejection ◼ Immune tolerance not a near-future reality ◼ Long-term outcomes are suboptimal

  6. Challenges in kidney transplant medicine Kidney graft survival: Europe ◼ short-term vs. long-term survival Gondos A et al. Transplantation 2013; 95: 267; Kramer A et al. Clin Kidney J 2016; 9: 457

  7. Challenges in kidney transplant medicine Number of patients returning to dialysis USA USRDS: Annual Data Report 2010

  9. Causes of kidney graft failure / loss

  10. A model of kidney graft loss Comorbidities Patient Adverse events: metabolic, CV, infectious, malignant Immunosuppression death (CNI toxicity) Donor Brain IF / TA DGF death IR injury Graft TCMR • failure clinical • Rejection HLA MM subclinical (class II) de-novo DSA ABMR CG • clinical • subclinical IR , ischemia-reperfusion; DGF , delayed graft function; DSA, donor-specific antibodies; TCMR , T-cell mediated rejection; ABMR , antibody-mediated rejection; CG , chronic glomerulopathy; IF/TA , interstital fibrosis/tubular atrophy

Comorbidities Patient Adverse events: metabolic, CV, infectious, malignant Immunosuppression death (CNI toxicity) Donor IR injury Brain IF / TA DGF death Graft TCMR • failure clinical • Rejection subclinical HLA MM (class II) de-novo DSA ABMR CG • clinical • subclinical HLA MM, human leukocyte antigen mismatch; DSA, donor-specific antibodies; TCMR , T-cell mediated rejection; ABMR , antibody-mediated rejection
