Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to determine whether an immunosuppressive maintenance regimen of Envarsus/azathioprine compared to a tacrolimus/ mycophenolic acid regimen is associated with better compliance, tolerability, and lower biopsy proven rejection.

  • Drug: Once daily immunosuppression regimen
  • Drug: Twice daily immunosuppression regimen
Phase 4

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Once daily regimen

Once daily medication regimen (Envarsus and azathioprine)

Drug: Once daily immunosuppression regimen
Intervention focuses on the type of regimen, in this case the intervention arm will receive a once daily regimen for immunosuppression compared to the twice daily regimen.

Active Comparator: Twice daily regimen

Twice daily medication regimen (Tacrolimus and mycophenolic acid)

Drug: Twice daily immunosuppression regimen
This is the arm which we are designating the standard, which will be the comparison to the active drug arm.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in Compliance and tolerability of medication regimen at 3 and 12 months [3 months and 12 months post transplant]

    BAASIS Survey

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in Self-recorded Compliance and tolerability of medication regimen at 3 and 12 months [3 months and 12 months post transplant]

    Pill Manager (personal medication record keeping for those who participants who choose to use this method of recording their self-administered medication)

  2. Composite endpoint measurement [12 months]

    Incidence of Biopsy proven Acute Rejection, graft loss, death, Lost to follow-up at 12 months.
