Patient KW, a 36-yr-old male renal transplant recipient, received transplant acceptance-inducing cells (TAICs) as an adjunct immunosuppressive therapy. In the weeks post-transplantation, the patient's conventional immunosuppressive treatment was gradually minimized, such that, from the 21st wk post-transplantation onwards, the patient was stably maintained on tacrolimus monotherapy. Treatment with TAICs was without complication, both at the time of administration and in the four-yr follow-up period. It is concluded that the production and administration of TAICs to recipients of kidney transplants from deceased donors is technically feasible.     «
