Mycophenolate-Based Therapy for Kidney Transplant Recipients Without HLA-DQ Mismatch

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if calcineurin-inhibitor therapy (a drug commonly used to prevent rejection) can be safely stopped in kidney transplant recipients with a relatively low risk of rejection (being recipients of a first transplant, without any signs of pre-existing immunity against the graft, and having a good HLA match with the donor (no mismatch in HLA-DQ)). Before stopping the calcineurin-inhibitors, the remaining therapy with mycophenolate mofetil and corticosteroids will be optimized.The main questions it aims to answer are: Is this approach safe, in terms of preventing rejection? Is this approach well tolerated? Will this approach lead to better kidney function and/or other beneficial effects?
