Abstract(s)
Calculated panel-reactive antibody (cPRA) is an accurate
measure for the definition of candidates’ immunization to a
transplant. Based upon unacceptable HLA antigens to which
the patient has been sensitized, cPRA is computed with
HLA allelic and haplotypic frequencies from a pool of
possible donors and represents the percentage of donors that
express one or more of the antigens unacceptable for a
given transplant candidate. The aim of this study is to
compare cPRA values obtained from HLA frequencies of
Portuguese donors with values obtained from cPRA
calculators from international established sources.
