Lung transplant moms: does Baby's DNA raise rejection risk?
NCT ID NCT05689905
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether shared genetic markers (HLA) between a child and a lung donor increase the risk of organ rejection in mothers who had a lung transplant. Researchers collected DNA from children born to 11 transplant women in France between 2012 and 2021. The goal is to better understand pregnancy-related immune risks and improve future recommendations.
