OKT3 prevents is prescribed to prevent organ rejection immediately after surgery and is also used to treat acute rejection episodes
Transpalntation Rejection
They can. Without the donor organ being fully connected into the patient's body, there is no way to know if it's going to work or not. Obviously, the previous organ has (usually) been removed by this point (exception being in kidney transplants, or "piggy back" transplants), so if the new organ does not work, you're slightly stuck... If the organ has had a long time from being harvested from the donor to going into the patient, the odds of it not working become higher. Also, the experience of you surgeon does influence whether an organ transplant works or not (however inexperienced surgeons are not allowed to operate without the guidance of a more experienced surgeon). Also, 'organ rejection' can cause transplants to fail. (But this does not equate to death of the patient - some rejection is treatable with drugs, the rest (whom drugs do not work for) require a re-transplant).
Disadvantages: Rejection Antigens on the surfaces of cells in animal organs are drastically different from human antigens, rendering them very easily recognized and targeted by the immune system, leading to organ necrosis and rejection. This rejection may be mitigated by immunosuppressants but this would mean that the patient will have to take immunosuppressant drugs for the rest of their lives and live with an increased risk for infections due to immunosuppression. Physiological differences between species Physiological differences between humans and the animal species means that the animal organ may not be designed to perform the same function that it does in humans or it performs the function to a different extent. Disease Certain diseases can cross the species barrier and infect the patient if the animal organ is not appropriately chosen. Ethical Certain patients may not wish to have animal organ transplants for religious, animal rights or other psychological concerns. Advantages: Availability Animal organs, especially those from domesticated species (sheep, pig, dog, etc.) are easily accessible as these animals are easy to breed and their anatomies are well understood. Cost While no cost can be assigned to a human organ, an animal organ can be bought or sold at a price proportional to the animal's economic value. Ethical Animal transplantation is more justifiable than human organ trade.
organ rejection
Organ Rejection.
after a graft or transplant, the immune response of the recipient to foreign tissue cells, with production of antibodies and eventually destruction of the transplanted organ. acute rejection , acute cellular rejection , cellular rejection.
It results in "organ rejection".
Rejection of what? A transplanted organ? Sometimes the body recognises the new organ as a foreign body and attacks it. Medication is given to prevent it usually.
Donated organ rejection information should be obtained from a primary care physician. The body sees a donated organ as an invader and tries to eliminate it. Rejection drugs are used for this problem.
Rejection usually starts at the end of the first week.
it fails to work MT

I think type 2....
Organ rejection is a term used in transplant surgery. When an organ is transplanted, heart, liver, lung, kidney etc. the recipients body will see it as an invader and try to reject it. Anti-rejection drugs are administered to counter this natural reaction.
No effective immunosuppression, which is required to prevent organ rejection. Corticosteroids were available (which reduce inflammation), but no calcineurin inhibitors (such as ciclosporin or tacrolimus), which alter the function of T-cell lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell, produced by the patient's bone marrow, not the transplanted organ) to prevent organ rejection. Hence most transplants failed due to organ rejection pre-1954. The first effective immunosuppression (ciclosporin) was found in the 1970's, but 1954 happened to be the year when the process of organ rejection was first understood.
