Trial Outcomes

The Incidence of Biopsy-proven Acute Allograft Rejection During the First 12 Months of Transplant.

The incidence of rejection is determined by the proportion of patients experiencing biopsy proven acute allograft rejection during the first 12 months post-transplant. (NCT00166712)
Timeframe: Within 12 months post kidney transplant
