| Core Tip |
This study reports on the use of tixagevimab/cilgavimab in newly transplanted kidney recipients. There were no adverse events related to the drug, and a 12.5% breakthrough infection rate, 4.5% hospitalization rate, and no deaths. The results suggest reassuring outcomes in newly transplanted kidney recipients who received tixagevimab/cilgavimab 300 mg/300 mg as prevention for coronavirus disease 2019 during the omicron wave. A systematic literature review of studies reporting outcomes of solid organ transplant recipients who received tixagevimab/cilgavimab found that the drug was well tolerated and a higher dose (300 mg/300 mg) was more protective against breakthrough infections and hospitalization than the lower dose (150 mg/150 mg). |
