Immune Monitoring and CNI Withdrawal in Low Risk Recipients of Kidney Transplantation

Phase 2 Terminated 52 enrolled National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Clinical Trials in Organ Transplantation · collab

RandomizedParallel-groupOpen-labelTreatment

Summary

The study will compare how well transplanted kidneys work and the response of people's immune systems as tacrolimus, a calcineurin inhibitor (CNI), is withdrawn. In addition, this research study will evaluate whether reducing immunosuppression can decrease some of these side effects while still preventing rejection of the kidney.
