简要总结
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 6-month treatment with Advagraf® converted from 12-month treatment with tacrolimus in stable liver transplant recipients.
The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate severity of acute rejection confirmed by biopsy in 24 weeks, incidence of chronic rejection, patient and graft survival rates in 24 weeks, incidence of adverse events, blood pressure, tacrolimus trough level, drug compliance, and adherence.
详细描述
This is single-center, single-group, open-label study, phase 4 IIT. The Subject is transplantated liver at a minimum of 12 month of screening and at least 12 month Treatment with a Tacrolimus stably And start screening after obtain consent to participate in clinical trials, if appropriate in the selection criteria do not apply to the exclusion criteria are enrolled in clinical trials.
Administration method is following : The total daily dose of -1 tacrolimus will be converted to 1:1 (mg:mg) and the total daily dose of ADVAGRAF® will be administered only once daily in the morning for 24 weeks, starting from Day 0.
Researchers must check the blood concentration of tacrolimus at each visit and adjust the dose to achieve the blood concentration maintaining at 5~10ng/ml of study treatment.
Duration of treatment : The investigational product will be administered for 24 weeks.
Tacrorimus blood level is 3-10 ng/ml for 6 months prior to screening and during the maintenance therapy. It is recommended to check the blood concentration of tacrolimus at each visit and adjust the dose to achieve the blood concentration maintaining at 5~10ng/ml of study treatment. (The lowest blood levels shall be adjusted at the discretion of the researchers, taking a blood sample is carried out in the morning before have of Investigational Product)

结局指标
主要结局
Incidence of acute rejection confirmed by biopsy in 24 weeks after conversion
时间窗: within 24 weeks
* Incidence of acute rejection (%) = no. of subjects who had acute rejection at least once / no. of all the subjects in the relevant analysis set \* 100 * Only acute rejection confirmed by biopsy will be recognized. * In addition, concomitant immunosuppressants other than tacrolimus will be divided into sub-groups (by type and dosage/administration), and point estimation and calculation of 95% two-sided confidence interval will be conducted for incidence of acute rejection.
次要结局
- Tacrolimus trough level at each visit(within 24 weeks)
- Severity of acute rejection confirmed by biopsy in 24 weeks after conversion(within 24 weeks)
- Incidence of adverse events(within 24 weeks)
- Tacrolimus compliance(within 24 weeks)
- Incidence of chronic rejection(within 24 weeks)
- Patient and graft survival rates in 24 weeks after conversion(within 24 weeks)
- Time from conversion to onset of acute rejection(within 24 weeks)
