3.Recipient of a kidney with a cold ischemia time < 30 hours.
4.Recipient of a primary (or secondary, if first graft is not lost due to immunological reasons) renal transplant from a deceased heart beating, living unrelated, living related non-human leukocyte antigen identical or an expanded criteria donor.
