  • Title: Pentoxifylline as an adjunct to cyclosporine-based immunosuppression does not improve the outcome of renal transplantation.
    Author: Königsrainer A, Aichberger C, Riedmann B, Steurer W, Ofner D, Margreiter R.
    Journal: Transplant Proc; 1995 Feb; 27(1):1062-3. PubMed ID: 7878805.
    Abstract:
    The adjunct of PTX to the therapeutic regimen after renal transplantation had no effect on the incidence of ATN, immunologic or infectious complications, or CyA toxicity. Also, patient and graft survival was not affected. The four deaths in the study group can probably not be attributed to PTX therapy. From these data it is concluded that PTX is not able to improve the outcome of renal transplantation.
