Overview
Overview
Therapies such as molecular targeting require more research.[1] Recently, there have been reports of successful kidney transplantation from HIV-positive donors to HIV-positive recipients.[2][3]
Future or Investigational Therapies
Future or Investigational Therapies
- Therapies such as molecular targeting for prevention or delaying the progression to end stage renal disease (ESRD) require more research. [1]
- Recently, there have been reports from USA and South Africa that have shown successful kidney transplantation from HIV-positive donors to HIV-positive recipients.[2][3]
- HIV superinfection and resistance to cART are among the most concerning risks in kidney transplantation in HIV-positive kidneys to HIV-positive recipients.[4]
- There is lack of data on the estimation of recurrent disease and long-term outcome is not clear.[1]
