Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to understand the pharmacokinetics of sirolimus tablets in different regimens in newly renal transplant patients, and the effect of dosage form conversion on the concentration of sirolimus in stable renal transplant patients. So that we can design a better tacrolimus or cyclosporine/sirolimus/steroid dose regimen for Taiwanese.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Sirolimus tablets will be available more than one year after the launch of sirolimus solution. Most patients on sirolimus solution will use sirolimus tablet instead.
