Summary

This study tests whether using a child's genetic information can help doctors find the best dose of tacrolimus, a drug that prevents organ rejection, more quickly and safely. About 45 children aged 1-18 who receive a kidney, liver, or heart transplant will take part. The goal is to see if this personalized approach helps more children reach the right drug level in their blood and avoid side effects from too much or too little medication.
