Summary

Determine the value of a clinically feasible strategy of therapeutic drug monitoring compared with fixed dosing in de novo MMF treated renal transplant recipients with respect to the incidence of treatment failure.

Conditions

  • De Novo Renal Transplant Recipient.

Interventions

DRUG

Mycophenolate Mofetil

1 g for adult patients and 300 mg/m2 for paediatric patients. Fixed dose arm: 1 g twice a day (bid) for adults and 600mg/m2 bid for paediatric patients. Concentration controlled arm: initial dose will be 1 g bid for adults and 600mg/m2 bid for paediatric patients. Abbreviated AUCs (taken at timepoints: 0, 30min and 120min in fasted patients) on Days 3 and 10, Week 4, Months 3, 6 and 12 will be performed to determine mycophenolic acid levels in plasma.
