Extension Study to Assess Tolerability and Safety of Enteric-coated Mycophenolate Sodium in Renal Transplant Recipients Who Received Mycophenolate Mofetil

January 28, 2011 updated by: Novartis

A One Arm, Open-label Study to Investigate the Tolerability and Safety of Enteric-coated Mycophenolate Sodium (EC-MPS) in Renal Transplant Recipients Who Received Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF)

This extension study is considered to allow patients being treated with EC-MPS to collect further information on the long-term safety of this drug.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Safety/tolerability based on adverse events within 6 months after switching patients from MMF to optimized enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Safety based on renal function within 6 months after medication switch.
Graft survival and patient survival 6 months post medication switch.
Pharmacokinetics (PK) in a randomized subpopulation.
Efficacy measured by the incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection, graft loss or death within 6 months post medication switch.
Efficacy measured by the incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection 6 months post medication switch.
