Dosage of Tacrolimus Metabolites in Blood and Bile for Prediction of Its Side Effects in Liver Transplant Recipients

Recruiting
Conditions
Blood Concentration of Tacrolimus Metabolites
Registration Number
NCT05277792
Lead Sponsor
Rennes University Hospital
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if concentration of tacrolimus metabolites is increased in patients presenting tacrolimus (TAC) side effects.

Detailed Description

The study will evaluate whether the blood concentration of TAC metabolites (13-O-desmethyl-tacrolimus, 15-O-desmethyl-tacrolimus and 31-O-desmethyl-tacrolimus), measured between Day1 and Day5 of its introduction, is increased in patients with TAC toxicity.

A blood test will be performed daily from Day1 to Day5 for the measurement of TAC concentration and TAC metabolites concentration.
