Donor-derived Cell Free DNA as a Tissue Injury Marker for Early Detection of Acute Rejection and Development of CLAD Following Lung Transplantation in Adults

Overview

About this study

The aim of this study is to evaluate a novel NGS-based assay for early detection of increased amounts of dd-cfDNA and its correlation to acute graft rejection and development of chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD), and to improve the rejection diagnostics of patients after transplantation in order to empower early clinical intervention and thereby prolong the potential survival of the graft.
