Summary

This multicentre, prospective, randomized, open-label study will compare the safety and efficacy of mycophenolate mofetil with delayed introduction of sirolimus and discontinuation of cyclosporine, with those of mycophenolate mofetil and long term continuation of cyclosporine in renal transplant recipients receiving daclizumab (Zenapax) as induction treatment and followed by 8 month treatment with corticosteroids. The anticipated time on study treatment is 12 months. Participants who will complete the initial 12-month study and who will provide written informed consent will be eligible to participate in a 60-month follow-up phase.

Conditions

  • Renal Transplantation

Interventions

DRUG

Cyclosporine

Cyclosporine tablets orally once daily at dose level adapted to maintain concentration at 2 hours after administration (C2): 1000-1500 nanogram per milliliter (ng/mL) during Day 0 to Week 4, and 800-1200 ng/mL during Week 4 to Week 52. For Mycophenoate Mofetil + Sirolimus treatment arm, at Week 12, dose of cyclosporine will be reduced by 50% for 3 days, followed by 1/4 of the dose for 3 days, and then cyclosporine will be stopped.

DRUG

Daclizumab

Daclizumab 2 milligram (mg) per kilogram (kg) will be administered as intravenous infusion over 15 minute on Day 0 (during the 24 hours preceding renal transplantation) and at a dose of 1 mg/kg on Day14.

DRUG

Mycophenoate Mofetil

Mycophenoate mofetil 1 gram (g) (2\*500mg tablets or 4\*250mg capsules) will be given twice daily (daily dose of 2 g) orally for 12 months.

DRUG

Prednisolone

Prednisolone 250 mg intravenously on Day 0, followed by 0.5 mg/kg orally daily (maximum 40 mg daily) from Day 1 to Day 7, then 0.25 mg/kg orally daily (maximum 20 mg daily), then dose will be stepwise reduced by 2.5 mg per week to reach to a dose level of 10 mg daily and continued up to 6 months and finally drug will be discontinued after 8 months.

DRUG

Sirolimus

Sirolimus tablets will be given orally from week 12 to week 52, starting with loading dose of 10 mg daily for 2 days followed by 6 mg daily to adapt to trough concentrations of 8-15 ng/mL from week 12 to week 39, and 5-10 ng/mL from week 39 to week 52.
