First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether switching kidney transplant patients from their current maintenance drugs to either RaparoBell® or Myrept® is safe and effective. About 206 adults who had a kidney transplant 1-10 years ago are taking part. The goal is to see if the new drugs prevent rejection and graft loss as well as the standard therapy.
