Clinical Trial Summary

To demonstrate that cyclosporine-sparing immunosuppressions with the standard dose of Enteric-Coated Mycophenolate Sodium would preserve renal graft function after transplantation without an increase of incidences of adverse events, such as biopsy confirmed acute rejection, local or systemic infections, and bone marrow suppression.


Description:

This clinical investigation will be the open-label, prospective, multi-center, 1:1 randomized comparative, longitudinal, and investigator-initiated study. Patients with end-stage renal disease will be assessed for the eligibility, and then be randomized using random number table into one of two groups prior to kidney transplantation.

Immunosuppression consisted of Cyclosporine(Neoral®), Methylprednisolone OR prednisone OR deflazacort(Brand name is not designated) and Enteric-Coated Mycophenolate Sodium(Myfortic®). Basilixumab(Simulect®) will be given just prior to transplant and 4 days after transplantation. The Enteric-Coated Mycophenolate Sodium will be given orally at the dose of 720 mg BID for Group A (investigational) or 360 mg BID for Group B (comparator), starting at two days after transplantation, as shown in the figure below. Cyclosporine will be given orally at a dose of 10 mg/Kg/day starting at a day before transplantation. Within a month after transplantation, the dose of the drug will be individually adjusted with goal trough blood level between 100 ng/mL and 200 ng/mL for Group A or between 200 ng/mL and 300 ng/mL for Group B, as displayed in the table below. From a month to 2 months post-transplantation, the target blood trough levels of cyclosporine will be reduced to between 75 ng/mL and 150 ng/mL for Group A or between 150 ng/mL and 250 ng/mL for Group B. From 2 months to 4 months post-transplantation, it will be further reduced to between 50 ng/mL and 125 ng/mL for Group A or between 125 ng/mL and 200 ng/mL for Group B. After 4 months post-transplantation, it will be further reduced to between 50 ng/mL and 100 ng/mL for Group A or between 100 ng/mL and 200 ng/mL for Group B.

12. Existence of any surgical or medical condition, other than the current transplant, which in the opinion of the investigator might significantly alter the absorption, distribution, metabolism or excretion of study medication, and/or presence of severe diarrhea, active peptic ulcer disease, or uncontrolled diabetes mellitus.

13. Evidence of drug, alcohol abuse, and/or other psychiatric illness within the last 6 months prior to study enroll 14. At the time of the screen evaluation for this study, patients with platelet count<50,000/mm3, absolute neutrophil count of <1,500/mm3, white blood cell count of < 4,500/mm3, or patients who have an abnormal liver profile such as ALT, AST Alk Phos or total bilirubin>3 times the upper normal limit.

Study Design

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment


Intervention

Drug:
Standard Dose of Myfortic and Reduced Dose of Myfortic
Low Dose of Neoral (Cyclosporine) and Standard Dose of Myfortic (Enteric-Coated Mycophenolate Sodium) vs. with Conventional Dose of Neoral (Cyclosporine) and Reduced Dose of Myfortic (Enteric-Coated Mycophenolate Sodium)
Prednisolone OR methylprednisolone OR deflazacort injected both control group and experimental group
500 mg IV Injection in OP Day and 250 mg IV injection in POD1(1 Post op day). And then the drug dose is gradually reduced following the study institution's protocol. But the subject must be take the dose of 5mg of the drug per one day. The drug dose should be controlled on the basis of 5mg of Prednisolone. It can be used with the same dose of methylprednisolone 4 mg or deflazacort 6 mg.
Basiliximab injected both control group and experimental group
The subject must be injected 20 mg of Simulect in Kidney transplantation day and just before the OP. After 4 days(96hour ± 12hr), the subject must be injected 20mg of Simulect, again.
