Dataset from B Cell Targeted Induction to Improve Outcomes in Pediatric Lung Transplantation (CTOTC-08)

In this study, doctors are trying to see if a study drug called rituximab (Rituxan®) will lower the number of B cells in the body. Doctors are also trying to see if decreasing B cells with rituximab (Rituxan®) can prevent injury to the transplanted lung. This treatment has been studied in other types of solid organ transplants.
