❤️🩹 Sensitized, Desensitized, Transplanted: CAR-T Opens a New Door in Kidney Transplantation
from Dr RR Baliga's "Got Knowledge Doc" Podkast · host MasterMedFacts LLC
🧬 Groundbreaking NEJM report! Two highly sensitized kidney transplant candidates (cPRA ~99.995–99.998%) underwent successful transplantation after dual CD19- and BCMA-targeted CAR-T therapy. 🎯 Rather than simply removing antibodies, investigators targeted the cells that produce them—memory B cells and plasma cells. The result? Profound reduction in anti-HLA antibodies, successful transplantation, and no donor-specific antibody rebound during follow-up. 🚀 This study expands the horizon of CAR-T beyond oncology and may herald a new era in transplant immunology. 📖 NEJM 2026: Bhoj et al. #KidneyTransplant #CART #TransplantImmunology #PrecisionMedicine #MedicalInnovation #MedEd 🩺
