New blood test could help heart transplant patients avoid dangerous complications

NCT ID NCT06939751

Summary

This study aims to develop a blood test that measures tiny molecules called microRNAs to monitor a patient's immune system after a heart transplant. Researchers will follow 250 adult heart transplant patients for three years to see if these blood markers can predict who might develop infections or organ rejection. The goal is to create a tool that helps doctors better balance anti-rejection medications—avoiding too much (which causes infections) or too little (which causes rejection).
