CD complex response to cessation of induction with OKT3 may be predictive of rejection. Twenty-seven patients receiving renal allografts and OKT3 induction immunosuppression were retrospectively analyzed for CD complex repopulation and allograft rejection. Flow cytometric monitoring was utilized in all patients. Responder status groups were identified based on CD complex repopulation, with fast responders demonstrating CD complex repopulation above the determined cohort mean. Slow responders had repopulation below this mean. Student'sttest yieldedP<0.01 (CD2),P<0.02 (CD3), andP<0.01 (CD8). Nonresponder patients were identified with repopulation below the mean, but flat compared with depletion. All nine fast responders lost their graft or were treated for rejection. No slow responder experienced graft loss or rejection episodes. One nonresponder was treated for rejection. CD complex activity following OKT3 cessation correlates with future rejection. Identification of responder status provides insight into propensity to reject, allowing individual tailoring of immunosuppression to patient response.
