Inclusion criteria

* Kidney transplant recipients * \>18 years and \<75 years of age * \>6 months post Tx * on stable dose of immunosuppression * Transplant biopsy showing interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy of grade II or greater, with some evidence of lymphocytic infiltration (biopsy is NOT a study procedure, it would be performed as part of the patient's SOC) * Ability to give informed consent

Exclusion criteria

* Biopsy proven acute cellular rejection; greater than grade 1A * Baseline creatinine \>3.5mg/dL * Patients with active infection, including Hepatitis B and C, HIV * Current or prior invasive malignancy * Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding * Patients who are unable to give consent * Prior intolerance of/allergy to IL2 * Inability to comply with treatment * History of thrombotic angiopathy including hemolytic uremic syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura * Symptomatic congestive cardiac failure or uncontrolled cardiac angina * Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (minimum sensitivity 25 IU/L or equivalent units of HCG) within 24 hours prior to the start of study drug. * WOCBP and male subjects with reproductive potential must agree to use a highly effective method of birth control \[defined in protocol & ICF\] during study treatment, and for 6 months after completion of treatment.
