title: The use of OKT3 in steroid-resistant rejections following cadaveric kidney transplantation.
abstract: OKT3 has been proved to be effective in the treatment of steroid-resistant rejection after renal allograft transplantation. We investigated the clinical course of OKT3 recipients to find out in which cases of steroid resistance OKT3 therapy might be ineffective.
