Gene expression profiling scores in dual organ transplant patients are similar to those in heart-only recipients

This largest cohort to date suggests that dual organ transplantation alone should not be reason to omit GEP testing from post-transplant medical management, as the two groups' scores did not differ significantly. Confirming that GEP scores increase over time for heart-only and dual organ recipients and in the presence of cytomegalovirus infection, our work shows promise for the use of serial GEP testing in dual organ recipients.
