Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Safety/tolerability based on adverse events within 6 months after switching patients from MMF to optimized enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Safety based on renal function within 6 months after medication switch.
Pharmacokinetics (PK) in a randomized subpopulation.
Efficacy measured by the incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection, graft loss or death within 6 months post medication switch.
Efficacy measured by the incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection 6 months post medication switch.
