Summary

Phase I/II, single center, prospective, open-label, non-controlled, non-randomized, interventional, cohort study in which low risk living donor liver transplant (LDLT) recipients will receive a single infusion of donor-derived DCreg 1 week prior to transplantation. All patients will be maintained on MPA and Tacrolimus (Tac) for the 1st 6 months after transplantation. At that time point, recipients meeting specific criteria will be slowly weaned off MPA per standard of care over a period of 6 months. Participants will then be evaluated for TAC weaning at 1 yr after transplantation. Those who meet specific criteria be weaned off Tac over 6 months . Successfully weaned participants who remain rejection-free will undergo 3 years of follow-up after the last dose of immunosuppression.
