Easier pill for transplant kids? study tests new daily dose

NCT ID NCT01294020

Summary

This study tested if switching children with stable organ transplants from a twice-daily anti-rejection pill (Prograf) to a new once-daily version (Advagraf) was safe and kept the right amount of medicine in their blood. It involved 81 children who had received a heart, kidney, liver, lung, or intestine transplant at least six months earlier. Researchers closely tracked drug levels and checked for organ rejection and side effects over a year.
