NCT02556879

Brief Summary

Anti HLA alloimmunization against the donor evaluated by the detection of anti-donor specific antibodies (DSA) is an underestimated factor in liver transplantation and may contribute to dysfunction and graft loss , especially among candidates for retransplantation, that have major immunization. This study will analyzed immunization markers at the time of liver retransplantation and systematically in patients follow-up. This will allow to characterize the histological lesions due to humoral immunization, to establish further investigations and to adapt early immunosuppressive therapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Risk of graft failure at 24 months (Odds Ratio) depending on the presence of DSA at retransplantation.

    The graft failure is defined by abnormal hepatic tests (AST, ALT, GGT, PAL, total and conjugated bilirubin, PT, INR), and/or abnormal hepatic histology , and/or abnormal hepatic imagery.

    24 months after retransplantation

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Evaluate the association between the presence of the DSA at retransplantation and histological abnormalities of the explant and graft. ( Pearson's chi-square test or Fischer exact test).

    retransplantation, 12 and 24 months after retransplantation

  • Evaluate the association between the presence of the DSA at before retransplantation and biological abnormalities graft from the previous donor

    9 months, 6 months, 3 months Before transplantation

  • Evaluate the association between the presence of the DSA at retransplantation and biological abnormalities graft at 1, 3, 12 and 24 months.( Pearson's chi-square test or Fischer exact test).

    1, 3, 12 and 24 months after retransplantation

  • Evaluate the association between the presence of DSA and fibrosis Fibroscan measured at 12 and 24 months. (Student t-test or non parametric test).

    12 and 24 months after retransplantation

  • Evaluate the association between the number of acute rejection episodes and the presence of the DSA at retransplantation and their evolution (especially of recurrence).(Pearson's chi-square test or Fischer exact test).

    24 months after retransplantation
