Budesonide for Immunosuppression After Liver Transplantation to Reduce Side Effects

NCT03315052 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2019-09-23

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Our hypothesis is that budesonide will provide effective hepatic ISP that will replace prednisone and allow lower systemic drug levels of FK, thus reducing the steroid- and calcineurin-associated complications often observed in the OLT population. This study is intended to investigate the therapeutic potential of this ISP combination.
