Abstract

In a double-blind trial renal allograft recipients were treated with fibroblast interferon preparations for 3 months in an attempt to prevent viral infections. Interferon therapy did not reduce the overall incidence of viral infections. No adverse effects were noted on liver function, platelet counts, or leucocyte counts, or acute rejection episodes.
