Résumé

During the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic, several physicians have questioned pursuing belatacept in kidney-transplant patients in order to reduce the risk of nosocomial transmission during the monthly infusion. The effect of the conversion from belatacept to another immunosuppressive regimen is underreported. The aim of the present retrospective study was to assess the effect on kidney function and the clinical outcome of the conversion from belatacept to another regimen.
