Clinical trials: Cardiac Transplant Rejection
Heart Transplant Failure and Rejection
Precision Guided Tacrolimus Dosing in Pediatric Heart Transplant
Immunosuppressive therapy is required to prevent organ rejection, however, dosing of immunosuppressive agents is complicated by patient-specific differences impacting the body's absorption and elimination of these agents.

Antibody-mediated Rejection, Hyperacute Rejection of Cardiac Transplant
The De-novo Use of Eculizumab in Presensitized Patients Receiving Cardiac Transplantation
All individuals who receive a heart transplant are at risk for developing antibody-mediated rejection (AMR). An antibody is a protein produced by the body's immune system when it detects a foreign substance, called an antigen.
- Conditions
- Antibody-mediated Rejection, Hyperacute Rejection of Cardiac Transplant, Left Ventricular Dysfunction, Cardiac Allograft Vasculopathy
- Trial name
- DUET (NCT02013037)
- Testing
- Eculizumab
- Where
- United States
- Volunteers
- 36 people

- Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
Heart Transplant, Acute Graft Rejection
Stress Cardiac MRI for Evaluation of Nonspecific Allograft Dysfunction
The investigators will use cardiac MRI to measure the myocardial perfusion reserve and amount of myocardial edema and fibrosis in heart-transplant patients with nonspecific allograft dysfunction in contrast to those with normal…
