About Transplantation 
The kidney and liver are the two most transplanted organs in Canada, representing over 76% of all organ transplants performed each year¹. In patients with end-stage organ failure, organ transplantation is the only curative option and has been established as a life-saving intervention that can have a profound effect on patient outcomes, including health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and survival.^2-4 The most serious complication of transplantation is organ rejection and controlling the anti-transplant immune response is essential for a successful outcome.
