摘要

Background: Generally, an induction agent is chosen based on the conditions of the deceased donor and the recipient. Antithymo-cyte globulin (ATG) is preferred in relatively high-risk conditions. No clear evidence indicates which induction agent is safer or more ef-ficient for deceased donor kidney transplantation (DDKT). This study compares the efficacy and safety of basiliximab (BSX) and ATG according to donor characteristics in DDKT.Methods: A total of 724 kidney transplant recipients from three transplant centers were enrolled, and propensity score matching was performed. Based on a donor age of 60 years, donor kidney with acute kidney injury (AKI), and Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) score of 65, we investigated how the choice of induction therapy agent affected the posttransplant clinical outcomes of delayed graft function (DGF), acute rejection (AR), infectious complications, and allograft and patient survival.Results: AR and DGF did not differ significantly according to induction agent in elderly/young donor, AKI/non-AKI, and high-KDPI/ low-KDPI subgroups. The infection rate did not show meaningful differences. The differences in death-censored allograft survival and patient survival rates between induction agents were not statistically significant.Conclusion: Our study suggests that BSX can produce clinical outcomes similarly favorable to those of ATG even in DDKT cases with relatively poor donor conditions. Nonetheless, the donor and recipient conditions, immunological risk, and infection risk must be all taken into consideration when choosing an induction agent. Therefore, clinicians should carefully select the induction therapy agent for DDKT based on the risks and benefits in each DDKT case.
