Acronym: DHOPE-DCD
Brief Summary: Rationale Recent publications report good results of controlled donation after circulatory death DCD Maastricht category III liver transplantation when strict donor-recipient matching is applied and ischemia times are kept to a minimum However a major concern remains the high rate of biliary complications after transplantation of DCD livers Non-anastomotic biliary strictures NAS occur in 29 of patients receiving a DCD graft whereas the incidence of NAS in recipients of donation after brain death DBD liver grafts is 11 NAS are associated with higher morbidity and increased cost of liver transplantation Injury to the biliary epithelium and the peribiliary vascular plexus occurring during donor warm ischemia and static cold storage SCS has been identified as a major risk factor for development of NAS Machine perfusion has been proposed as an alternative strategy for organ preservation offering the opportunity to improve the quality of the organ by providing oxygen to the graft Experimental studies have shown that end-ischemic dual hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion DHOPE helps liver grafts to recover from ischemia by restoring mitochondrial function Moreover DHOPE has been shown to provide better preservation of peribiliary vascular plexus of the bile ducts which could be an important step forward in reducing the incidence of NAS after transplantation

Objective To study the efficacy of end-ischemic DHOPE in reducing the incidence of NAS within six months after controlled DCD Maastricht category III liver transplantation

Study design An international multicenter prospective randomized controlled interventional clinical trial with a two parallel arm approach treatmentcontrol

Study population Adult patients 18 yrs old undergoing a liver transplantation with a liver graft procured from a controlled DCD donor Maastricht category III with a body weight 40 kg

Intervention In the intervention group liver grafts will be subjected to two hours of hypothermic oxygenated perfusion at the end of SCS and before implantation In the control group donor liver grafts will be preserved in accordance to standard practice by SCS only

Main study parametersendpoints The incidence and severity of symptomatic NAS as diagnosed by an Adjudication committee who are blinded for the group assignment by means of magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography MRCP
