Review: This volume focuses on new drugs and advances in clinical development of new modalities as well as new avenues of imunosuppression, It is divided into three parts: current immunosuppressives, immunosuppressive biologicals, and emerging new therapies for immunosuppression. The latter addresses two major issues that have yet to be resolved, namely chronic graft vasculopathy and immune tolerance, and also reviews the status of gene therapy in organ transplantation. The final section has two chapters dealing with immunosuppression. The book will interest clinicians working with immunosuppressives in daily patient care and researchers in preclinical and clinical studies.
