Study Comparing Graft Function in Renal Allograft Recepients Receiving Reduced or Standard Dose CsA With Sirolimus

A Comparative, Open-label Study to Evaluate Graft Function in de Novo Renal Allograft Recipients Treated With Either a 'Reduced Dose' or a 'Standard Dose' of Cyclosporine in Combination With Sirolimus and Corticosteroids

This study evaluated renal graft function (based on calcuated creatinine clearance) 12 months after transplantation in patients receiving either a regimen of reduced dose or standard dose cyclosporine in combination with sirolimus and corticosteroids. The incidence of acute graft rejection at 6 and 12 months following transplantation and patient and graft survival at 12 months were evaluated also.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This study evaluated renal graft function (based on calcuated creatinine clearance) 12 months after kidney transplantation in patients receiving either a regimen of reduced dose or standard dose cyclosporine (CsA) in combination with sirolimus and corticosteroids. The incidence of acute graft rejection at 6 and 12 months following transplantation and patient and graft survival at 12 months after transplantation were evaluated also.
