Brief Summary

The aim of this study is assess the safety and efficacy of the treatment regimen of basiliximab ,cyclosporine microemulsion, MMF, and prednisone combined compared to cyclosporine microemulsion, MMF and prednisone in the time to first biopsy proven acute rejection episode or treatment failure during the first 6 months post-transplantation in pediatric renal allograft recipients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time to first BPAR episode or treatment failure

    Treatment failure is defined as: graft loss, death, or initiation of anti-rejection therapy without prior biopsy-proven rejection (in case of medical contraindication for a biopsy).
