Validation of Population Pharmacokinetic Model Derived From Healthy Volunteer in Kidney Transplant Recipients

Conditions
Kidney Transplantation
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT02808065
Lead Sponsor
Seoul National University Hospital
Brief Summary

Pharmacokinetic model to predict interaction between tacrolimus and mycophenolate was developed through clinical trial with healthy volunteer. The purpose of this study is to confirm predictability of developed pharmacokinetic model in kidney transplant recipients.

Detailed Description

Study participants take their immunosuppressant as usual. One day, blood is drawn at predose and 1, 2, 3, 4-hour postdose to compare observed concentration with model-predicted concentration of tacrolimus and mycophenolate.
