Recurrence of membranous nephropathy after kidney transplantation: A multicenter retrospective cohort study

Membranous nephropathy (MN) is a leading cause of kidney failure worldwide and frequently recurs after transplant. Available data originated from small retrospective cohort studies or registry analyses; therefore, uncertainties remain on risk factors for MN recurrence and response to therapy. Within...

Available data originated from small retrospective cohort studies or registry analyses; therefore, uncertainties remain on risk factors for MN recurrence and response to therapy. Within the Post-Transplant Glomerular Disease Consortium, we conducted a retrospective multicenter cohort study examining the MN recurrence rate, risk factors, and response to treatment. This study screened 22,921 patients across 3 continents and included 194 patients who underwent a kidney transplant due to biopsy-proven MN. The cumulative incidence of MN recurrence was 31% at 10 years posttransplant. Patients with a faster progression toward end-stage kidney disease were at higher risk of developing recurrent MN (hazard ratio [HR], 0.55 per decade; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.35-0.88). Moreover, elevated pretransplant levels of anti-phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) antibodies were strongly associated with recurrence (HR, 18.58; 95% CI, 5.37-64.27). Patients receiving rituximab for MN recurrence had a higher likelihood of achieving remission than patients receiving renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibition alone. In sum, MN recurs in one-third of patients posttransplant, and measurement of serum anti-PLA2R antibody levels shortly before transplant could aid in risk-stratifying patients for MN recurrence. Moreover, patients receiving rituximab had a higher rate of treatment response.Elsevier202420242024info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10230/61255http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ajt.2024.01.036reponame:Recercat.
