Anti-Galalpha 1-3Gal (Gal) antibodies (Ab) play a key role in the rejection of pig cells or organs transplanted into primates. A course of extracorporeal immunoadsorption (EIA) of anti-Gal Ab using an immunoaffinity column of a Gal type 6 oligosaccharide depletes Ab successfully, but Ab returns during the next few days. Although therapy with an anti-CD154 monoclonal antibody (mAb) prevents an induced Ab response to Gal or non-Gal epitopes, T cell-independent natural anti-Gal IgM and IgG return to baseline (pretransplant) levels. We have investigated the capacity of continuous i.v. infusion of bovine serum albumin conjugated to Gal type 6 oligosaccharide (BSA-Gal) to deplete or maintain depletion of circulating anti-Gal Ab.
