Study Comparing Standard Dose and Reduced Dose Tacrolimus With Sirolimus in Renal Transplant Patients

December 7, 2023 updated by: Wyeth is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer

An Open-label, Concentration-controlled, Randomized, 6-month Study of 'Standard Dose' Tacrolimus + Sirolimus + Corticosteroids Compared to 'Reduced-dose' Tacrolimus + Sirolimus + Corticosteroids in Renal Allograft Recipients

The study evaluated renal graft function (based on the calculated creatinine clearance) 6 months after kidney transplantation in patients receiving either a regimen of 'reduced-dose' tacrolimus + sirolimus + corticosteroids or a regimen of 'standard-dose' tacrolimus + sirolimus + corticosteroids.

Detailed Description

The study evaluated renal graft function (based on the calculated creatinine clearance) 6 months after kidney transplantation in patients receiving either a regimen of 'reduced-dose' tacrolimus + sirolimus + corticosteroids or a regimen of 'standard-dose' tacrolimus + sirolimus + corticosteroids. The two treatment groups were also compared with respect to the incidence of acute graft rejection at 6 months and patient and graft survival at 6 months after transplantation.
