Tacrolimus C:D Ratio Measured in Renal Transplant Recipients Treated With Once-daily Prolonged-release Drugs

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the bioavailability and practicability of two different formulations of tacrolimus in kidney transplant recipients. The main objective is to demonstrate that Envarsus® (test drug) has superior (higher) oral bioavailability compared with Advagraf™ (comparator drug) at 12 weeks after kidney transplantation. The trial also aims to compare the practicability (handling) of the two drugs using a series of pharmacokinetic parameters and to explore the relationship between drug bioavailability and long-term clinical outcomes, with a special focus on dose-dependent adverse reactions, measured until 3 years post-transplantation. The trial incorporates a pharmacokinetic sub-study designed to profile the peak tacrolimus blood concentration up to 6 hours after drug intake on the day of the 12-week study visit.
