The TRansplant European Survey on Anaemia Management (TRESAM) reported a 38.6% prevalence rate of anaemia among transplant recipients during the first 5 years post-transplant,<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span> similar to the rates observed in other studies.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> The aetiology of PTA is not well defined. The primary factors associated with this entity are low serum levels of erythropoietin, renal failure, and iron deficits.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span> The graft does not start to synthesise erythropoietin until adequate renal function is reached.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4-6</span> This delay can produce anaemia, requiring red blood cell transfusions. In addition, erythropoietin deficits are associated with delayed cellular recovery following episodes of acute tubular necrosis.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">7,8</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The long-term consequences of PTA and delayed graft function on the evolution of the kidney transplant can have major impacts on renal transplant recipients. Anaemia has been associated with left ventricular hypertrophy in patients on dialysis,<span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span> and constitutes an independent predictor for cardiovascular mortality in patients with renal transplants.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span> The number of patients on the waiting list for donated kidneys continues to increase, and many of these individuals have poor cardiovascular risk profiles that reduce their tolerance to low haemoglobin (Hb) levels. In addition, the recent increases in the use of expanded-criteria donors for renal transplants increases the probability of delayed allograft function and a slower recovery of renal function. A recent meta-analysis demonstrated that delayed allograft function is associated with a lower 3-year graft survival.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Currently, no clearly established treatment regimens exist for managing PTA. One issue that remains to be solved is whether patients should receive erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESA) during the immediate post-transplant period. The administration of recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO) in kidney recipients during the first few weeks post-transplant has not been shown to provide benefits in terms of correcting immediate postoperative haematocrit values, despite relative resistance to ESA.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span> Controversy also exists regarding the need to provide iron supplements as a concomitant treatment along with ESA. Patients with recent transplants have elevated ferritin levels and/or elevated transferrin saturation index (TSAT). Some doctors have interpreted these findings as acute phase reactions to postoperative inflammation, which would imply that there is no need for administering iron supplements. Also, heavy use of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) in kidney transplant recipients can induce resistance to ESA, since both drugs inhibit erythropoiesis.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Few studies have evaluated the efficacy of darbepoetin alfa for treating anaemia in kidney transplant recipients,<span class="elsevierStyleSup">13-16</span> and only one of these examined this type of treatment in the immediate postoperative period.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span> The primary objective of our observational, retrospective study was to describe recovery from post-transplant anaemia based on the use of darbepoetin alfa during the first week post-transplant.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">METHOD</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We performed a multi-centre, observational, retrospective study at 4 Spanish hospitals.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Patients</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We reviewed the clinical histories of all patients who received kidney transplants between April and December 2004, and included all individuals older than 18 years of age for which Hb levels were available for the first 6 months post-transplant.

We did not observe any correlation between the occurrence of cardiovascular events and the administration of darbepoetin alfa (8 events in patients without darbepoetin alfa and 6 in patients with darbepoetin alfa; <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">P</span>=.772).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">DISCUSSION</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In this observational study, darbepoetin alfa was administered to almost half of all patients (46.5%) during the first week post-transplant, which was associated with a lower incidence of anaemia at the end of the first month. The use of ESA during the first weeks following transplantation varies widely among different hospitals. The results from the TRESAM study revealed that, of the 8.5% of patients with severe anaemia, only 17.8% were treated with erythropoietin.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span> Curiously, the use of darbepoetin alfa in our study was not associated with the presence of pre-transplant anaemia. We did not observe significant differences in any other of the variables examined (including donor characteristics and iron parameters) between patients treated with darbepoetin alfa and untreated patients, making it difficult to determine what factors influenced the decision to prescribe this medication. Despite this limitation, our results demonstrate that the use of darbepoetin alfa in the immediate post-transplant period reduces the risk of anaemia during the first month by 50%, with no clinically relevant adverse side effects.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In a previous randomised clinical trial with rHuEPO,<span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span> in which 40 patients with kidney transplants were randomised to receive 100IU/kg of rHuEPO three times per week if their Hb levels decreased below 12.5g/dl as compared to a control group, the time to reach an Hb value >12.5g/dl was shorter in the rHuEPO group, although no statistically significant differences were observed in terms of the proportion of patients who reached a value >12.5g/dl. The authors concluded that the use of rHuEPO, at doses equivalent to those used in our study for darbepoetin alfa, provides limited benefits for correcting anaemia. The primary difference between the two studies was the initial value of Hb, which was much higher in our study. Baseline serum levels of ferritin and creatinine were also considerably higher in our study, which indicates a worse initial state of the kidney graft. Another study<span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span> also failed to demonstrate a significant benefit from administering darbepoetin alfa during the first months post-transplant. It is possible that the benefits from ESA during the immediate post-transplant period depend on the initial situation of the recipient. Nampoory et al.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span> analysed endogenous erythropoietin levels (EPO) in both anaemic and non-anaemic stable kidney recipients, observing that non-anaemic recipients had normal or abnormally high serum EPO levels (“EPO resistance”), whereas almost all patients with anaemia had EPO deficits and responded rapidly to low doses of rHuEPO.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The prevalence of anaemia in our study sample was quite high. It is remarkable that, in the first week post-transplant, Hb levels had descended below 11g/dl in the vast majority of patients (74.8%). This value is higher than that reported in a similar observational study carried out in France (cumulative prevalence of anaemia: 66%).<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span> The elevated baseline levels of creatinine and the use of mycophenolate mofetil in almost all patients could help explain the high rate of anaemia.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">21</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleSup"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In the group treated with darbepoetin alfa, 25% of patients were anaemic at the end of the first month, which suggests the presence of unresponsive individuals in this sample. This finding could be related to the state of acute inflammation in these patients,<span class="elsevierStyleSup">22</span> as reflected by their elevated ferritin levels. A recent study compared gene expression in kidney recipients treated with ESA to gene expression in non-anaemic controls, and demonstrated that anaemic patients exhibit an over-expression of molecules implicated in the immune response, which suggests that the inflammation cascade is involved in the development of anaemia following transplantation.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">23</span> Other explanations could involve the use of ACE inhibitors and ARBs in approximately 15% of patients.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">24</span> The prevalence of anaemia at 1 month in the untreated group (40.6%) is similar to values reported in the TRESAM study (38.6%), although this value decreased considerably after 6 months (14.5% of the entire sample).</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">We observed a tendency towards a reduced requirement for transfusions in patients treated with darbepoetin alfa, although this difference did not reach statistical significance, perhaps due to the small number of patients with severe anaemia (requiring transfusions) at the start of treatment. The doses administered (56μg/week) were higher than those recommended by clinical guidelines for the correction phase (31.5-42mg/week for a patient weighing 70kg),<span class="elsevierStyleSup">25</span> but are comparable to those reported in similar observational studies.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">As regards the relationship between the use of darbepoetin alfa and recovery of renal function, we did not observe a significant influence in our study sample. However, when considering only those patients who received organs from non-heart beating donors, we observed a tendency towards a shorter time needed to recover renal function in patients treated with darbepoetin alfa, both in anaemic and non-anaemic patients. Despite the small sample size in this group, our findings are in line with those from studies that have shown independent effects of ESA on a faster recovery from acute tubular necrosis.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">7,8</span> Results from <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">in vitro</span> animal studies suggest that administering erythropoietin before or during the ischaemic damage caused to renal epithelial tubular cells protects these cells against cell death through the JAK2/Y343/STAT5 signalling pathway.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">26</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Our results also suggest that the presence of anaemia at 1 month is associated with delayed graft function. This relationship has also been previously reported,<span class="elsevierStyleSup">27</span> and could be explained by the causal effect of renal failure on anaemia.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">12</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleSup"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The use of darbepoetin alfa in our sample did not produce an increase in the incidence of cardiovascular events, and renal function after 3 and 6 months was similar between treated and untreated patients. Patient and graft survival rates were high. In the TREAT study (The Trial to Reduce Cardiovascular Events with Aranesp Therapy), the risk of cerebrovascular accidents increased in pre-dialytic patients with diabetes treated ESA in order to reach a target Hb of 13g/dl.<span class="elsevierStyleSup">28</span> In order to prevent over-dosing and unnecessary adverse side effects from treatment with ESA, these parameters must be strictly monitored during the first months following transplantation, with frequent clinical and biochemical evaluations so as to suspend treatment as soon as abnormal values are detected.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">The primary limitations to our study are related to its observational and retrospective design, the heterogeneity in clinical practice protocols due to the inclusion of multiple hospitals, the lack of information regarding the motives for prescribing darbepoetin alfa and the doses used, and the small sample size. As such, ours was an exploratory study, and its results must be interpreted with this in mind.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara">In conclusion, the administration of mid-range doses of darbepoetin alfa in the immediate post-transplant period contributes to the normalisation of Hb levels towards the end of the first month in kidney transplant recipients, and could be related to a faster recovery of renal function in patients at a risk for delayed allograft function, with no clinically relevant adverse side effects. Given the greater rates of mortality and morbidity observed in kidney transplant recipients with anaemia,<span class="elsevierStyleSup">29-32</span> the use of ESA can be considered during the first few weeks following transplantation. More studies will be needed to investigate the factors that serve as predictors for the response to this type of treatment, so as to improve the cost-effectiveness of ESA therapy, perhaps based on endogenous levels of EPO or other parameters of renal function.</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"> </p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Authorship and conflicts of interest</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold"> </span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">CJ, MM, AA, and JP designed the study and coordinated the group; CJ participated in data analysis and manuscript elaboration; all other authors contributed to clinical data collection and manuscript revision.
