Brief Summary

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

Non-adherence is widespread in the transplant community. Addressing issues associated with non-adherence remains a key challenge in transplantation, in part due to the difficulty in assessing its prevalence, as there is currently no 'gold standard' for use in routine clinical practice.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the non-adherence to immunosuppressive therapy, including tacrolimus once-daily, among Italian kidney transplant recipients receiving. Along with non-adherence evaluation, possible factors related to NA will be investigated (patient-related, condition/disease-related, therapy/treatment-related, etc.).
