Ex-vivo delivery of monoclonal antibody (Rituximab) to treat human donor lungs prior to transplantation

BACKGROUND: Ex-vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) is an innovative platform for assessing donor lungs in the pre-transplant window. In this study, we demonstrate an extension of its utility by administering the anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, Rituximab, during EVLP. We hypothesized that this would lead to ta...
