PEOPLES-STOKES -- read once and referred to the Committee on Higher Education AN ACT to establish a Center for Transplantation and Immunology Research at the University at Buffalo and Erie County Medical Center; and making an appropriation therefor The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem- bly, do enact as follows: 1 Section 1. Legislative determinations. Kidney disease in the United 2 States is fast becoming epidemic in character. Due to the increasing 3 incidence of both diabetes and hypertension in the general population, 4 chronic renal disease affects an estimated 16.8% of adults aged 20 years 5 and older. As of 2008, there were over 500,000 people on dialysis more 6 than 300,000 of who have diabetes and hypertension as their underlying 7 cause. The cost to society of treating end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in 8 2008 was 39.46 billion dollars. The cost to the individual patient is a 9 higher mortality and shorter life span at all ages compared to the 10 general population. In the absence of effective therapies for chronic 11 kidney disease, patients are left with the choice of either dialysis or 12 transplantation. 13 Kidney transplantation has become the treatment of choice for patients 14 with end stage renal disease (ESRD) providing improved survival rates 15 and a better quality of life. In addition, transplantation represents 16 the most cost-effective form of ESRD therapy once the allograft survives 17 more than 3 years. As immunosuppressive therapies for kidney transplan- 18 tation evolved to include more potent and specific therapies, short-term 19 (1 year) patient and graft survival rates have continuously improved. It 20 is not unusual to expect 1 year success rates of over 90%. However, 21 these short term improvements have not translated into improved longer 22 survival rates. The expected survival of kidney transplants for living 23 donors remains at 18-20 years and for deceased donor organs 8-10 years; 24 rates which have not significantly improved over the past 20 years.

LBD01791-01-5 A. 6393 2 1 Currently, the most important challenge in renal transplantation is 2 promoting the long-term kidney allograft function. Eventually many, if 3 not all, transplanted kidneys develop a progressive fibrotic process 4 that affects both the interstitium and vasculature. This renal fibrosis 5 eventually leads to renal failure, an increased rate of cardiovascular 6 disease and mortality and the need for reinstituting dialysis. Today, 7 the most rapidly increasing group of patients requiring a new kidney 8 transplant is those whose previous transplant has failed. 9 It is becoming increasingly clear that there is no single cause of 10 kidney transplant fibrosis rather this process culminates from a myriad 11 of etiologies. One of the major challenges to delivering effective tran- 12 splant care is the difficulty in assessing an individual's particular 13 requirements for adequate immunosuppression. In of itself, too much 14 immunosuppressive therapy in the form of calcineurin inhibitors leads to 15 renal fibrosis and is felt to be a major
