Core Tip Pre-transplant low-level donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) detected by the Luminex platform alone, are associated with favorable graft outcomes at one and 10 years in kidney transplant recipients. This study highlights that with appropriate immunosuppressive induction and maintenance protocols, these patients experience low rates of acute rejection (AR) and sustain satisfactory long-term graft function and survival. The majority of patients who experienced AR showed a resolution of DSAs, underscoring the dynamic nature of antibodies. These findings support the clinical relevance of Luminex-detected low-level DSAs and reinforce the efficacy of contemporary immunosuppressive strategies in optimizing graft survival in this subset of transplant recipients.
