Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Kidney Transplantation
Pediatric Patients
Maintenance With Tacrolimus
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01476488
Lead Sponsor
Seoul National University Hospital
Brief Summary

This study was designed to compare the pharmacokinetics of Prograf and Advagraf in stable pediatric kidney transplant recipients.

Enrolled patients on prograf will have pharmacokinetic study of tacrolimus for 24 hours and after that, the same dose of advagraf will be prescribed. The patients will have another pharmacokinetic study of tacrolimus after conversion to advagraf.
