Official title
Gastrointestinal Adverse Effect Outcomes of De Novo African American Kidney Transplant Recipients Treated With Tacrolimus, Corticosteroids and Mycophenolate Mofetil or Enteric Coated Mycophenolate Sodium
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Myfortic (enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium) has been shown to have similar effectiveness to CellCept (mycophenolate mofetil) in preventing rejection in kidney transplant recipients. However, enteric coated mycophenolate sodium has been thought to possibly be associated with fewer gastrointestinal side effects. Mycophenolate mofetil and enteric coated mycophenolate sodium pharmacokinetics (how the drug is absorbed and broken down) have not been well-studied in African American kidney transplant recipients. The investigators are interested in studying enteric coated mycophenolate sodium and mycophenolate mofetil pharmacokinetics and gastrointestinal side effects in African American kidney transplant recipients.
