Tegoprubart Used For Immunosuppression In Another Transplantation Surgery. A transplant patient that received a genetically engineered pig kidney has been given tegoprubart as part of their drug regimen to prevent organ rejection. The genetically engineered pig kidney was produced by Eledon’s partner, eGenesis, with the surgery performed at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). We see the continued use of tegoprubart instead of tacrolimus, the standard of care, as a positive sign from the transplant community.
Tegoprubart Was Chosen Over Tacrolimus. Tegoprubart is an anti-CD40 ligand antibody that modulates the immune system and avoids the long-term toxic side effects of tacrolimus. It is currently in two human clinical trials for kidney transplantation and has been used in several recent xenotransplantation procedures. We see this choice as a sign that doctors see its clinical data as an improvement over tacrolimus.
