Kenya: World’s first ovarian tissue transplant in the world without use of toxic anti-organ rejection drugs performed in Kenya

The transplant was performed by a team of Kenyan and international doctors on baboons at the IPR centre
The transplant was unique because the scientists did not use immunosuppressants.
The use of immunosuppressants in current protocol are highly toxic with serious side effects linked to their use
The new protocol is particularly important for young women who survive cancer but lose their ovarian function due to the heavy cancer treatment
The next step is clinical tests on women
