Tocilizumab Evaluation in HLA-Desensitization before Kidney Transplantation as an Add-On Therapy to Apheresis: The TETRA Study.

Tocilizumab as an add-on to SoC desensitization may help control the post-transplantation rebound of antibodies with elevated baseline MFIs. However, reductions in pre-transplantation MFIs were similar with or without tocilizumab. Further studies are needed to validate this pilot study.
