Tolerance of Lung Allografts Achieved in Nonhuman Primates via Mixed Hematopoietic Chimerism

While the induction of transient mixed chimerism has tolerized MHC‐mismatched renal grafts in nonhuman primates and patients, this approach has not been successful for more immunogenic organs. Here, we describe a modified delayed‐tolerance‐induction protocol resulting in three out of four monkeys achieving long‐term lung allograft survival without ongoing immunosuppression. Two of the tolerant monkeys displayed stable mixed lymphoid chimerism, and the other showed transient chimerism. Serial biopsies and post‐mortem specimens from the tolerant monkeys revealed no signs of chronic rejection. The tolerant recipients also exhibited T cell unresponsiveness and a lack of alloantibody. This is the first report of durable mixed chimerism and successful tolerance induction of MHC‐mismatched lungs in primates.
