BACKGROUND AND AIMS Post-transplantation patient care requires development and validation of noninvasive biomarkers to improve allograft monitoring and prevention from unnecessary biopsies. Preliminary reports have suggested the association of donor derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) with allograft rejection. However, there is no proof of its added value beyond standard of care patient management in large and deep phenotyped cohorts. METHOD A total of 1210 concomitant evaluations of allograft histology, anti-HLA DSA and functional parameters between 2013 and 2018 were included corresponding to 637 evaluations in the derivation cohort and 573 in the validation cohort. dd-cfDNA was measured in plasma at the time of the evaluation. Diagnoses were assessed using Banff 2019 criteria. Parameters associated with kidney allograft rejection were assessed using uni- and multivariable logistic regression. We developed a risk model using the variables that were independently associated with rejection. RESULTS Higher levels of dd-cfDNA were observed for AMR and TCMR or both compared to other diagnoses (Figure 1A). We found incremental dd-cfDNA levels with increasing Banff lesion scores for g, ptc, i, t, cg and C4d (Figure 1B). There was no association of dd-cfDNA levels with allograft inactive lesions. In multivariable analysis, dd-cfDNA (P CONCLUSION We demonstrate the independent and added value of dd-cfDNA in addition to conventional features to predict rejection. This first integrative system shows improved performance for patient monitoring and could help physicians in decision-making process.
