Blood and image markers for ECP response in lung transplant CLAD
This study looks at whether blood tests and MRI scans can predict how well ECP (a blood-filtering treatment) works for people with CLAD after a lung transplant. If you’ve been prescribed ECP for CLAD and haven’t had it before, you may be able to help researchers find better ways to tailor treatment.

CMV immunoglobulin to prevent disease after transplant

Biomarker-guided changes to anti-rejection medicines after kidney transplant
