TUMORAPA 1: Efficacy of Rapamycin in Secondary Prevention of Skin Cancers in Kidney Transplant Recipients

July 1, 2014 updated by: Hospices Civils de Lyon

Efficacy of Rapamycin in Secondary Prevention of Skin Cancers in Kidney Transplant Recipients - Multicentric Randomized, Open-label Study of Rapamycin vs Calcineurin Inhibitors

In a population of kidney transplant recipients having developed a first squamous cell carcinoma, the aim of the study is to assess the incidence of subsequent skin cancers over 2 years in patients who are switched to rapamycin as compared to patients who are maintained under calcineurin inhibitors.
