Abstract

Biologics have significantly advanced the treatment of inflammatory disorders, including psoriasis. However, their use in immunosuppressed patients, such as those with solid‐organ transplants, is less understood. These patients often face dermatological issues, but inflammatory skin diseases are rare due to their immunosuppressive treatments. Our study aims to assess biologics' effectiveness in such immunocompromised patients. We report a case from our institution of a 29‐year‐old man with a history of psoriasis, who underwent a kidney transplant and later developed erythroderma. He did not respond to traditional treatments and was successfully treated with adalimumab, leading to the discontinuation of MMF. We also reviewed literature in solid organ transplant patients with psoriasis. Our findings, based on 10 articles, indicate a cautious approach to using biologics in this group, with further research needed for efficacy and safety. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

13. Cytomegalovirus related hospitalization costs among hematopoietic stem cell and solid organ transplant recipients treated with maribavir versus investigator‐assigned therapy: A US‐based study.

Abstract

Background: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections among hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) and solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients impose a significant health care resource utilization (HCRU)‐related economic burden. Maribavir (MBV), a novel anti‐viral therapy (AVT), approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for post‐transplant CMV infections refractory (with/without resistance) to conventional AVTs has demonstrated lower hospital length of stay (LOS) versus investigator‐assigned therapy (IAT; valgancilovir, ganciclovir, foscarnet, or cidofovir) in a phase 3 trial (SOLSTICE). This study estimated the HCRU costs of MBV versus IAT. Methods: An economic model was developed to estimate HCRU costs for patients treated with MBV or IAT. Mean per‐patient‐per‐year (PPPY) HCRU costs were calculated using (i) annualized mean hospital LOS in SOLSTICE, and (ii) CMV‐related direct costs from published literature. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis with Monte‐Carlo simulations assessed model robustness. Results: Of 352 randomized patients receiving MBV (n = 235) or IAT (n = 117) for 8 weeks in SOLSTICE, 40% had HSCT and 60% had SOT. Mean overall PPPY HCRU costs of overall hospital‐LOS were $67,205 (95% confidence interval [CI]: $33,767, $231,275) versus $145,501 (95% CI: $62,064, $589,505) for MBV and IAT groups, respectively. Mean PPPY ICU and non‐ICU stay costs were: $32,231 (95% CI: $5,248, $184,524) versus $45,307 (95% CI: $3,957, $481,740) for MBV and IAT groups, and $82,237 (95% CI: $40,397, $156,945) MBV versus $228,329 (95% CI: $94,442, $517,476) for MBV and IAT groups, respectively. MBV demonstrated cost savings in over 99.99% of simulations. Conclusions: This analysis suggests that Mean PPPY HCRU costs were 29%–64% lower with MBV versus other‐AVTs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Abstract Purpose To gain an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of Chinese organ transplant recipients’ perceptions, expectations, and suggestions of pharmacy services to hospital pharmacists. Methods This qualitative study was conducted in central China, from February to December 2020. Participants were collected with a purposive and snowball sampling method. Focus group discussions were conducted with organ transplant recipients and content analysis was applied to identify themes and subthemes. Results 21 recipients participated in the qualitative study. Four themes and thirteen subthemes were identified: (1) perceptions of clinical pharmacists and pharmacy services; (2) expectations for pharmacy service content; (3) expectations for pharmacy service form; and (4) difficulties as a special group. Conclusion The pharmacy services provided by Chinese healthcare institutions are inadequate to meet the needs of organ transplant recipients. However, the acceptance and expectation of pharmacy services by transplant recipients are high. Therefore, China should learn from the experience of developed countries and focus on the actual needs of patients to establish a better pharmacy service system for organ transplantation.

Abstract

RNA viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, rely on genetic mutation as a major evolutionary mechanism, leading to the emergence of variants. Organ transplant recipients (OTRs) may be particularly vulnerable to such mutations, making it crucial to monitor the spread and evolution of SARS-CoV-2 in this population. This cohort study investigated the molecular epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 by comparing the SARS-CoV-2 whole genome, demographic characteristics, clinical conditions, and outcomes of COVID-19 illness among OTRs (n = 19) and non-OTRs with (n = 38) or without (n = 30) comorbid conditions. Most patients without comorbidities were female, whereas most OTRs were male. Age varied significantly among the three groups: patients with comorbidities were the oldest, and patients without comorbidities were the youngest. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that OTRs with mild disease had higher numbers of unusual mutations than patients in the other two groups. Additionally, OTRs who died had similar spike monoclonal antibody resistance mutations and 3CLpro mutations, which may confer resistance to nirmatrelvir, ensitrelvir, and GC37 therapy. The presence of those unusual mutations may impact the severity of COVID-19 illness in OTRs by affecting the virus's ability to evade the immune system or respond to treatment. The higher mutation rate in OTRs may also increase the risk of the emergence of new virus variants. These findings highlight the importance of monitoring the genetic makeup of SARS-CoV-2 in all immunocompromised populations and patients with comorbidity. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Organ transplant recipients are at high risk for skin cancer. Currently, more than half of the transplant waiting list is composed of skin of color patients. Skin cancer in skin of color is associated with higher morbidity and mortality and has a different clinical presentation and risk factors. Yet, skin cancer prevention resources and efforts are primarily focused on non-skin of color patients. A cross-sectional pilot survey was administered to assess and compare skin cancer attitudes, behaviors, and knowledge especially risk factors and features specific to skin of color between skin of color and non-skin of color organ transplant recipients. Patients from a patient list obtained from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center organ transplant center were randomized on Excel and contacted by phone with the choice to participate by phone or online. 219 of 403 patients completed the survey. Skin of color organ transplant recipients was significantly more likely to never practice recommended skin cancer preventative behaviors (p = 0.002, 0.006, 0.02), to hold a lower perceived self-risk (p = 0.02), to worry less about getting skin cancer (p = 0.003), and to have false perceptions about risk factors (p = 0.001, 0.005) in either univariable or multivariable analysis. However, they were more likely (38%, p = 0.02) to recognize human papillomavirus as a risk factor. The knowledge gaps identified can guide the development of skin cancer educational resources that are more comprehensive and relevant to skin of color recipients. This can lead to better outcomes and reduce racial health disparities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
