CTOT-11 Trial
• Aim to study effectiveness of rituximab as induction therapy
• Multi-center prospective randomized controlled trial
• Unsensitized cardiac transplant recipients; PRA<10%
• Subjects are then randomized (1:1) to receive rituximab or placebo as induction

Background and Apriori Hypothesis
• B cells are important in the development of
coronary allograft vasculopathy (CAV) by acting as
APCs for T cell activation through alloantibody
production
• Use of anti-CD20 Ab as induction therapy will
abrogate CAV in cardiac transplant recipients

RCS2
CTOT-11 Study Design
• Multi-center prospective randomized controlled trial
• Non-sensitized cardiac transplant recipients
• Subjects randomized (1:1) to receive rituximab or placebo as induction
• Randomization stratified by site and block randomized
• Primary endpoint –
– Coronary Artery Vasculopathy (CAV) progression
assessed by IVUS during year 1 post transplant

Percent Atheroma Volume (PAV)
• Based on pilot data in a contemporary transplant
population from the Cleveland Clinic Foundation
(n=93), the PAV increased by 3.11% (SD=5.196) over
one year.
• Data from CTOT-05 cohort of 54 pts showed a change
in PAV in the 1st year of 2.46 ± 4.21%
• This is a large rate of progression as Nissen and
colleagues have observed a change in PAV over one
year in non-transplant subjects of ~1%.
Nissen SE et al. JAMA 2008; 299 (13): 1561-1573.
Primary EndpointPrimary Endpoint
– The nominal change from baseline to 1 year in percent atheroma
volume (PAV) measured by IVUS in a target coronary artery
• Percent atheroma volume (PAV) reflects the summation
of disease burden, expressed as a proportion of the total
vessel wall dimensions.
• PAV is a more sensitive and robust measure of disease
burden, with less measurement variability.*
• We hypothesized that the nominal change in PAV at one
year will be reduced by 1.5% in subjects treated with
rituximab compared to placebo.* Intravascular Ultrasound-Derived Measures of Coronary Atherosclerotic Plaque Burden and Clinical
Outcome Stephen J. Nicholls, et al J Am Coll Cardiol 2010;55:2399–407
IVUS Procedure• IVUS at week 4-8 post-transplant (baseline), and month 12.
• The IVUS imaging analyzed at the Core Laboratory (Cleveland Clinic).
• Arterial side branch landmarks used to match baseline and month 12 IVUS interrogated segments.
• Images will be collected at one-millimeter intervals throughout the matched segment.
• A typical IVUS pullback exam includes a 40-50mm segment of coronary artery.
• Every one-millimeter cross section is analyzed to obtain lumen and media-adventitial areas. Volumes are
calculated using Simpson’s rule.
• The left anterior descending artery is the preferred artery for imaging when feasible.

Summary & Conclusions
• Use of Rituximab as induction therapy in non-
sensitized cardiac transplant recipients increased
CAV at 12 months.
• Rituximab was not associated with increased
rejection nor development of anti HLA Ab.
• Long-term follow up is required to understand the
effects on graft function and patient survival; CTOT 23
