Summary

Current practice of immune suppressive standard therapy after renal transplantation in non-risk patients is a triple therapy consisting of steroids, a calcineurin inhibitor and MMF. The aim of this clinical trial is to combine a reduction of CNI using tacrolimus and a concept of not using steroids in order to establish an immunosuppressive regimen in immunologically non-risk patients that is efficient and causes as few side effects as possible.
