A Trial of Two Daclizumab Dosing Strategies vs. No Induction Treatment With Tacrolimus, Mycophenolate Mofetil , & Steroids for the Prevention of Acute Allograft Rejection in Simultaneous Kidney/Pancreas Transplant Recipients

October 24, 2013 updated by: Rita Alloway, University of Cincinnati

An Open-Label, Comparative Trial of Two Daclizumab Dosing Strategies Versus No Induction Treatment in Combination With Tacrolimus, Mycophenolate Mofetil, and Steroids for the Prevention of Acute Allograft Rejection in Simultaneous Kidney/Pancreas Transplant Recipients

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and efficacy of two dosing regimens of daclizumab in simultaneous kidney/pancreas transplant recipients.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and efficacy of two dosing regimens of daclizumab as an adjunctive immunosuppressive agent in simultaneous kidney/pancreas transplant recipients receiving tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and steroids as primary maintenance immunosuppression.
