Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Subjects will be randomized to receive either (1) investigational oral ISP including budesonide 9mg by mouth in three daily divided doses, FK with an initial target trough level of no greater than 5-6ng/mL, and MMF (I-ISP); or (2) S-ISP including prednisone, calcineurin antagonist, and MMF. After randomization, subjects will be followed for a total of 52 weeks and assessed for adequacy of graft function, and complications of therapy, particularly ACR
