A Study to Assess Use of Zenapax (Daclizumab) and CellCept (Mycophenolate Mofetil) to Improve Kidney Function in Kidney Transplant Patients

November 1, 2016 updated by: Hoffmann-La Roche

A Randomized, Open-label Study Comparing the Effects of Low-dose Cyclosporine vs Cyclosporine Withdrawal on Renal Function in Kidney Transplant Patients Treated With CellCept and Daclizumab

This study will compare kidney function in kidney transplant patients following treatment with various combinations of Zenapax, CellCept, corticosteroids, and Neoral (Cyclosporine). The anticipated time on study treatment is 6-12 months, and the target sample size is 500+ individuals.
