Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (9)

  • Evaluation of AUC(0-24) for Envarsus XR and IR-Tac

    Tacrolimus whole blood concentrations obtained from the central lab was used for PK analysis. Actual sampling time was used to calculate AUC(0-24). Arithmetic mean and standard deviation is given below. Nominal time points used were: Pre-dose (C0) and then 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18 and 24 hours.

    Day 7

  • Evaluation of C(Max) for Envarsus XR and IR-Tac

    Tacrolimus whole blood concentrations obtained from the central lab was used for PK analysis. Actual sampling time was used to calculate C(max). Arithmetic mean and standard deviation is given below. Nominal time points used were: Pre-dose (C0) and then 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18 and 24 hours.

    Day 7

  • Evaluation of C(Min) for Envarsus XR and IR-Tac

    Tacrolimus whole blood concentrations obtained from the central lab was used for PK analysis. Actual sampling time was used to calculate AUC(0-24).
