Summary

The best renal replacement therapy is kidney transplantation. It improves end-stage renal kidney disease (ESRD) patients quality of life and increases their survival, but still remains risky. Morbidity in kidney transplantation is dominated by two main complications : acute graft rejection and infections. To maintain an accurate balance between rejection and infection, immunosuppressive therapy must to be used with caution and kept into a tight spectrum.

The investigators dispose of a new test measuring interferon gamma production after T cells and Natural Killers (NK) in vitro stimulation : QuantiFERON Monitor® (QFM). They hypothesized QFM monitoring could improve management after kidney transplantation providing functional immune data to optimize balance between rejection and infection.

The investigators aim to assess whether QFM could be an objective biomarker to predict infection and rejection risks after kidney transplantation.
