Summary
This is a randomized, open-label, controlled clinical trial designed to compare clinical outcomes after kidney transplantation using extended-release tacrolimus (Envarsus XR) versus immediate tacrolimus among highly-sensitized kidney transplant recipients. Outcomes to be assessed include the incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection at 12 months, the presence of de novo and pre-existing donor-specific HLA antibodies, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and the level of donor-derived cell-free DNA.
