Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Tacrolimus from EMS

Group 1: Tacrolimus from EMS + Myfortic® + Steroids

Drug: Tacrolimus from EMS
Tacrolimus initial dose of 0.2 mg/kg/day Myfortic®: 720 to 1440 mg/day Steroids: methylprednisolone: first dose 500mg, 250 mg at first day and 125mg at second day, reducing to 30mg after third day post transplantation.

Active Comparator: Prograf

Group 2: Prograf® + Myfortic® + Steroids

Drug: Prograf
Prograf initial dose of 0.2 mg/kg/day Myfortic®: 720 to 1440 mg/day Steroids: methylprednisolone: first dose 500mg, 250 mg at first day and 125mg at second day, reducing to 30mg after third day post transplantation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures
