Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to improve or save renal function by optimizing the immunosuppressive regimen by reducing the Cyclosporine A dose and the exchange of Azathioprine by Mycophenolatmofetile, which is an effective immunosuppressive agent and will minimize the risk of acute rejection episodes.


Clinical Trial Description

The decrease of quality of life in patients after heart transplantation in the long-term is determined by an increasing incidence of transplant vasculopathy and by immunosuppression-related side effects.Long-term administration of calcineurin inhibitors is associated with chronic nephrotoxicity. ;
