VECTR enhances virtual crossmatching by integrating epitope and amino acid analysis for assisting in organ allocation and for better understanding antibody reactivity profiles.
Are you considering epitope analysis to improve transplant outcomes as well as find compatible matches to your highly sensitized patients?
Are currently available sources too laborious and cumbersome?
Key Features of VECTR
Database-independent application that can connect to any LIMS database for data retrieval and analysis
Uses a top-down analysis approach, using eplets calculated from high resolution typing and/or antigen data
Uses the epitope list from HLA Matchmaker, a commonly used database for epitope matching
Detects eplets based on adjustable LSA cutoff values
Provides a graphical representation of LSA reactivity for each patient
Displays records of sensitization history which are also incorporated in the reactivity graphs for easier visual identification
• Designed to populate the following data based on the transplant type:
• Donor specific antigens
• Donor specific eplets
• Antibody reactivity permissible alleles
• Permissible typing eplets
Identifies the eplet reactivity for each patient using historical data with no restriction on the number of time points
Expand the available Luminex bead panel by identifying the most immunogenically similar surrogate bead
Assess the risk of De-Novo DSA formation between patient and donor pairs instantly using configurable and adjustable cutoffs
