Official title
A Three-Month, Open-Label, Two Cohort Study to Investigate the Safety and Tolerability of Myfortic in Combination With Neoral (Cyclosporin) or Prograf (Tacrolimus) in Liver Transplant Recipients With GI Intolerance
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Liver transplant patients often require multimodal immunosuppressive therapy to minimize their risk for rejection. In our regimen, MMF (mycophenolate mofetil) is often added to lower the side effects of the calcineurin inhibitors. Unfortunately the literature reports 20% up to as many as 40% of patients have GI intolerance to MMF. At our Center, approximately 30% of patients have intolerance to MMF, thereby mitigating our ability to use this agent. The primary objective of this study is to assess the tolerability of myfortic in combination with Neoral or Tacrolimus as determined by the GSRS (Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale) after conversion from MMF in maintenance liver transplant patients with GI intolerance within 3 months.
