Abstrakt: Background: HLA-DQ mismatch has been identified as a predictor of de novo donor-specific HLA antibody formation and antibody-mediated rejection. There are insufficient data to guide the incorporation of DQ mismatch into organ allocation decisions.
Methods: We used a retrospective longitudinal cohort of adult living donor kidney transplant recipients from 11 centers across the United States for whom high-resolution class II typing was available. HLA-DQαβ heterodimer allele mismatch was quantified for all donor-recipient pairs, and outcome data were obtained through linkage with the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients.
Results: We studied 3916 donor-recipient pairs. Recipient characteristics were notable for a median age of 51 (38-61) y, primarily unsensitized, with 74.5% of the cohort having 0% calculated panel-reactive antibody, and 60.4% with private insurance, for a median follow-up time of 5.86 y. We found that the HLA-DQαβ allele and HLA-DR antigen mismatch were each individually associated with an increased hazard of all-cause graft failure (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] DQ = 1.03 1.14 1.28; aHR DR = 1.03 1.15 1.328), death-censored graft failure (aHR DQ =1.01 1.19 1.40; aHR DR = 0.099 1.18 1.39), and rejection. Having 2 HLA-DQαβ allele mismatches further increased the hazard of rejection even when controlling for HLA-DR mismatch (aHR 1.03 1.68 2.74).
Conclusions: HLA-DQαβ allele mismatch predicted allograft rejection even when controlling for HLA-DR antigen mismatch and were both independently associated with increased risk of graft failure or rejection in adult living kidney transplant recipients. Given the strong burden of disease arising from the HLA-DQ antibody formation, we suggest that HLA-DQαβ should be prioritized over HLA-DR in donor selection.
