Filter by:This phase II, single-center, open-label study will evaluate the comparable efficacy of tacrolimus extended release tablets (Envarsus®) to the standard of care (SOC) twice daily tacrolimus (Prograf®) dosing regimen post-cardiac transplantation.
Short-term (1-year) results of renal transplantation are now excellent (over 95%). Long-term (10-year and longer) results are, however, still disappointing. Where most research has focused on immunosuppression and infections, the investigators hypothesize that in renal transplant recipient, amongst others overweight, obesity, chronic use of immunosuppressive drugs and impaired renal function contribute to insulin resistance and chronic low-grade inflammation, which pose the renal transplant recipients at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, decline of function of the transplanted kidney and other complications, including post-transplant diabetes. This study is a biobank and cohort study which investigates this hypothesis.
Anti HLA alloimmunization against the donor evaluated by the detection of anti-donor specific antibodies (DSA) is an underestimated factor in liver transplantation and may contribute to dysfunction and graft loss , especially among candidates for retransplantation, that have major immunization. This study will analyzed immunization markers at the time of liver retransplantation and systematically in patients follow-up. This will allow to characterize the histological lesions due to humoral immunization, to establish further investigations and to adapt early immunosuppressive therapy.
