Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

New onset diabetes mellitus (NODM) post- transplantation decreases patient and graft survival. Some immunosuppressive agents are associated with a higher incidence of NODM. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of converting patients with NODM from tacrolimus to cyclosporine micro-emulsion as a primary immunosuppressant for kidney and liver recipients.
