Figure 1 shows various clinical utilities of donor-derived cell-free DNA.
dd-cfDNA: Donor-derived cell-free DNA; ABMR: Antibody-mediated rejection.
Figure 2 Shows various confounding conditions that may lead to elevated donor-derived cell-free DNA levels or interfere with the assay, independent of rejection.
dd-cfDNA: Donor-derived cell-free DNA; IFTA: Interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy; DGF: Delayed graft function.
Figure 3 Potential future aims for ongoing studies.
ABMR: Antibody-mediated rejection; TCMR: T cell-mediated rejection; AKI: Acute kidney injury; CKI: Chronic kidney injury; cfDNA: Cell-free DNA.
Figure 4 An integrated approach to using donor-derived cell-free DNA for the diagnosis of rejection and renal allograft surveillance.
