Graft-derived Cell-free DNA as a Noninvasive Biomarker of Cardiac Allograft Rejection: A Cohort Study on Clinical Validity and Confounding Factors
2021-02-25
Abstract excerpt
Background. Circulating graft-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is a new marker of cardiac allograft damage that is used for noninvasive rejection diagnostics. We performed dd-cfDNA (%) in heart transplant recipients during the first posttransplant year. Methods. In 87 patients, serial dd-cfDNA determination at predefined time-points was performed in 770 single samples. dd-cfDNA fraction (%) was measured using an e...
