Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare outcomes in patients undergoing lung transplantation using 2 different induction therapies Primary outcome is survival and secondary outcomes include freedom from infection and freedom from rejection
Detailed Description: Acute and chronic allograft rejection are two of the common problems limiting and complicating the utility of lung transplantation The timing and frequency of acute rejection has been shown to be a significant risk factor for the development of chronic allograft rejection As an adjunct to standard triple immunosuppressive therapy induction therapy is thought to decrease the incidence of acute rejectionDaclizumab is an interleukin 2 receptor IL-2 antagonist which is FDA approved as an immunosuppressive agent Thymoglobulin is an anti-lymphocyte immunosuppressive agent that has been shown in other solid organ transplant studies to be successful in delaying the first episode of rejection but has not decreased the incidence of Obliterative Bronchiloitis chronic rejectionin lung transplantation
