T-lymphocytes CD8+/HLA-DR+ and Acute Rejection After Lung Transplantation

Not Applicable
Conditions
Transplant Failure
Interventions
Other: BLOOD SAMPLE ANALYSIS
Registration Number
NCT03587493
Lead Sponsor
Assistance Publique Hopitaux De Marseille
Brief Summary

The objectives of the study is to identify associations between acute rejection and the increase of T (CD4/CD8) and B circulating lymphocytes expressing specific markers of activation and differentiation (HLA-DR, CD25, CD38, CD45RO, CCR7).

110 adults over 18 years, on national waiting list for a first lung transplantation in the centers of Marseille and Strasbourg, whatever the lung disease, and who will be transplanted and benefit immunosuppressive induction therapy that specifically targets T lymphocytes will be included. Peripheral venous blood sampling just prior to pulmonary transplantation, at day 15 and one month post-transplant will be realized for lymphocyte phenotyping by flow cytometry (CD45, CD3, CD4, CD8, CD19, HLA-DR, CD25, CD38, CD45RO, CCR7). Acute rejection will be evaluated at 1 month and 1 year post-transplant by trans-bronchial biopsies.

The two main perspectives are to 1) find a specific, non-invasive, blood-based diagnostic marker of acute post-lung transplant rejection with diagnostic performance equivalent to trans-bronchial biopsy 2) demonstrate a specific blood marker, non-invasive, predictive of acute rejection in order to adapt immunosuppressive therapy early and reduce the occurrence of this risk.
