Study Arms (2)

Bortezomib

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Bortezomib (subcutaneous) 1.3mg/m2 on day 1, 4 and 7 with Steroid - Methylprednisolone (intravenous) Day 1 - 7: 500 mg/500 mg/500 mg/250 mg/250 mg/125 mg/125 mg After day 7: prednisolone (oral) 30 - 60 mg, then taper the dosage

Drug: BortezomibDrug: Steroid

Steroid

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Steroid - Methylprednisolone (intravenous) Day 1 - 7: 500 mg/500 mg/500 mg/250 mg/250 mg/125 mg/125 mg After day 7: prednisolone (oral) 30 - 60 mg, then taper the dosage

Drug: Steroid

Interventions

In one group, investigators administer bortezomib and steroid to manage acute cellular rejection in kidney transplantation, and compare the results with another group in which only steroid was administered.

Also known as: Velcade
Bortezomib

Investigators administer steroid in both groups for conventional treatment of acute cellular rejection.
