PROJECT SUMMARY
A key risk factor to long-term outcomes is persistent and reoccurring early acute T cell mediated rejection

(TCMR) episodes, which occur in a significant fraction of patients despite rejection treatment. Thus, a key

deficit in the field is a lack of available immunomodulating therapeutics that both effectively control

acute TCMR…
