LUNG TRANSPLANTATION Actuarial Survival (Transplants: January 1990 - June 2001) Survival was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method, which incorporates information from all transplants for whom any follow-up has been provided. Since many patients are still alive and some patients have been lost to follow-up, the survival rates are estimates rather than exact rates because the time of death is not know for all patients. The half-life is the estimated time point at which 50% of all of the recipients have died. The conditional half-life is the estimated time point at which 50% of the recipients who survive to at least 1 year have died. Because the decline in survival is greatest during the first year following transplantation, the conditional survival provides a more realistic expectation of survival time for recipients who survive the early post-transplant period. Survival rates were compared using the log-rank test statistic.

Since many patients are still alive and some patients have been lost to follow-up, the survival rates are estimates rather than exact rates because the time of death is not know for all patients. Survival rates were compared using the log-rank test statistic.

ADULT LUNG TRANSPLANTATION Actuarial Survival By Diagnosis (Transplants: January 1990 – June 2001) Survival was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method, which incorporates information from all transplants for whom any follow-up has been provided. Since many patients are still alive and some patients have been lost to follow-up, the survival rates are estimates rather than exact rates because the time of death is not know for all patients.

Since many patients are still alive and some patients have been lost to follow-up, the survival rates are estimates rather than exact rates because the time of death is not know for all patients. This figure shows survival conditional on survival to 3 months. Therefore, only patients surviving to at least 3 months were included in the calculation.

Since many patients are still alive and some patients have been lost to follow-up, the survival rates are estimates rather than exact rates because the time of death is not know for all patients. This figure shows survival conditional on survival to 12 months. Therefore, only patients surviving to at least 12 months were included in the calculation. The conditional half-life is the estimated time point at which 50% of the recipients who survive to at least 12 months have died.

ADULT LUNG TRANSPLANTS (1995-6/2001) Risk Factors for 1 Year Mortality A multivariate logistic regression model was developed to determine factors that were significant predictors of mortality within 1 year of transplant. All transplants with any follow-up were analyzed; those with incomplete follow-up were incorporated using a weight proportional to the amount of time for which follow-up was provided. Continuous factors were modeled using a spline rather than linear and quadratic terms; this allows for a more flexible fit to the data. Risk factors with an odds ratio greater than 1 indicate an increased probability of mortality when compared to the baseline group. Generally, the baseline group is the most common group for categorical risk factors and the mean for continuous factors. An odds ratio less than 1 indicates a decreased probability of mortality. Since the odds ratios for continuous factors may be difficult to summarize, they are provided in figures instead of tabular format. (N=7,262)

To provide a snapshot of current practice, only follow-ups occurring between January 2000 and June 2002 were included. Therefore, this figure does not represent changes in practice between the 1-year follow-up and 5-year follow-up on a cohort of patients. The patients in the 1-year tabulation are not the same patients as in the 5-year tabulation. NOTE: Different patients are analyzed in Year 1 and Year 5

POST-LUNG TRANSPLANT MORBIDITY FOR ADULTS Cumulative Prevalence in Survivors within 1 Year Post-Transplant (Follow-ups: April 1994-June 2002) This table shows the percentage of patients experiencing various morbidities as reported on the 1-year annual follow-up form. The percentages are based on patients with known responses. Because the outcomes are reported to be unknown at different rates the number with known responses for each outcome are also provided.
POST-LUNG TRANSPLANT MORBIDITY FOR ADULTS Cumulative Prevalence in Survivors within 5 Years Post-Transplant (Follow-ups: April 1994-June 2002) This table shows the percentage of patients experiencing various morbidities as reported within 5 years following transplantation. The percentages are based on patients with known responses. To reduce bias, only patients with responses reported on every follow-up through the 5-year annual follow-up were included. Because the outcomes are reported to be unknown at different rates the number with known responses for each outcome are also provided.
Freedom from Bronchiolitis Obliterans For Adult Lung Recipients (Follow-ups: April 1994-June 2002) Freedom from bronchiolitis obliterans rates were computed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The development of bronchiolitis obliterans is reported on annual follow-ups; a date of diagnosis is not provided. For this figure the date of follow-up was used as the date of occurrence. Patients were included in the analysis until an unknown response for bronchiolitis obliterans was reported. Therefore, the rates seen here may differ from those reported in the cumulative prevalence slide which is based on only those patients with known responses for bronchiolitis obliterans at all follow-up time points.
Freedom from Severe Renal Dysfunction Freedom from Severe Renal Dysfunction* For Adult Lung Recipients (Follow-ups: April 1994-June 2002) * Severe renal dysfunction = Creatinine > 2.5 mg/dl, dialysis or renal transplant Freedom from severe renal dysfunction rates were computed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The development of severe renal dysfunction is reported on annual follow-ups; a date of diagnosis is not provided. For this figure the date of follow-up was used as the date of occurrence. Patients were included in the analysis until an unknown response for severe renal dysfunction was reported. Therefore, the rates seen here may differ from those reported in the cumulative prevalence slide which is based on only those patients with known responses for severe renal dysfunction at all follow-up time points.
MALIGNANCY POST-LUNG TRANSPLANTATION FOR ADULTS Cumulative Prevalence in Survivors (Follow-ups: April 1994 - June 2002) Malignancy/Type 1-Year Survivors 5-Year Survivors No Malignancy 5104 (96.1%) 886 (86.9%) Malignancy (all types combined) 209 (3.9%) 134 (13.1%) Malignancy Type Skin 44 61 Lymph 109 21 Other 35 32 Lymph + Skin 3 Lymph + Other 5 Skin + Other 2 Type Not Reported 10 This table shows the percentage of patients with malignancies reported within 1 and 5 years following transplantation. The percentages are based on patients with known responses. To reduce bias, only patients with responses reported on every follow-up through the 5-year annual follow-up were included in the “5-Year Survivors” column.
Freedom from Malignancy For Adult Lung Recipients (Follow-ups: April 1994-June 2002) Freedom from malignancy rates were computed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The development of malignancy is reported on annual follow-ups; a date of diagnosis is not provided. For this figure the date of follow-up was used as the date of occurrence. Patients were included in the analysis until an unknown response for malignancy was reported. Therefore, the rates seen here may differ from those reported in the cumulative prevalence slide which is based on only those patients with known responses for malignancy at all follow-up time points.
ADULT LUNG TRANSPLANTS (1995-6/1997) Risk Factors for Developing Malignancy within 5 Years A multivariate logistic regression model was developed to determine factors that were significant predictors of developing a malignancy within 5 years of transplant. Since the date of malignancy diagnosis is not collected, the follow-up date on which malignancy was first reported was used as the date of diagnosis. All transplants with any follow-up were analyzed; those with incomplete follow-up were incorporated using a weight proportional to the amount of time for which follow-up was provided. Continuous factors were modeled using a spline rather than linear and quadratic terms; this allows for a more flexible fit to the data. (N=1,514)
