Antithymocyte globulin (rabbit) is approved for the reversal of acute rejection. A double-blind, randomized trial of thymoglobulin vs ATGAM was conducted in 163 renal recipients with rejection. Thymoglobulin had a higher reversal rate than ATGAM (88% vs 76%, p=0.027). Transplantation 66 29-37, July 15, 1998. [Pg.6]

Induction therapy with polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) has been an important component of inunu-nosupression when the beneficial effect of antilymphocyte globulin (ALG) in the prophylaxis of rejection in renal transplant recipients was demonstrated. Over the past 40 years, several polycolonal antilymphocyte preparations have been used in renal transplantation however, only two preparations are currently FDA approved lymphocyte immune globulin (ATGAM) and antithymocyte globulin (Thymoglobulin). [Pg.87]
