Experimental: Tacrolimus MR
After enrollment in the pharmacokinetic period, patients were maintained on their usual dose of tacrolimus twice daily on Day 1 through Day 14 and on Day 15 were converted to tacrolimus modified release (MR) once-daily in the morning for 14 days, converted back to tacrolimus twice daily for 14 days and then converted back to tacrolimus MR formulation once-daily in the morning for 14 days, all based on a 1:1 mg for mg total daily dose conversion. The extended treatment period began on day 57 and consisted of a single dose of tacrolimus extended-release formulation once every morning through the end of the study. Dose adjustments were allowed in order to maintain the target tacrolimus trough level within the range of 5 to 20 ng/mL and for clinical reasons. |

Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to 24 Hours (AUC0-24) for Tacrolimus
Prazo: Days 14 and 42 (tacrolimus) and Days 28 and 56 (tacrolimus MR), pre-dose 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 (pre-dose for tacrolimus only), 12.5, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, and 24 hours post-dose.
|
The area under the concentration-time curve was calculated from whole blood tacrolimus concentrations for both the tacrolimus and tacrolimus MR treatment periods at steady state using the linear trapezoidal rule.
The AUC0-24 for tacrolimus was calculated as the sum of the AUC0-12 for the morning (0-12 hour) and afternoon (12-24 hour) doses.
|
Days 14 and 42 (tacrolimus) and Days 28 and 56 (tacrolimus MR), pre-dose 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 (pre-dose for tacrolimus only), 12.5, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, and 24 hours post-dose.

Prazo: Days 14 and 42 at 12 hours post-dose (tacrolimus) and Days 28 and 56 at 24 hours post-dose (for tacrolimus MR).
|
The trough (minimum) concentration of tacrolimus determined from the tacrolimus whole blood concentration value at the 12 hour post-dose concentration based on the evening dose (i.e., the 8 am concentration) for tacrolimus and the 24-hour time point post-dose for tacrolimus MR, prior to receiving the next dose.
