Further study details as provided by University of Cincinnati:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To assess the incidence of presumed acute kidney or pancreas rejection, death, and kidney or pancreas graft loss in the first 6 months post transplant.

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Incidence, timing and severity of fungal infections.
  • Incidence, timing and severity of malignancies.
  • Hospitalizations.

Estimated Enrollment: 240
Detailed Description:

The purpose of the study is to determine the safety and efficacy of two dosing regimens of daclizumab as an adjunctive immunosuppressive agent in simultaneous kidney/pancreas transplant recipients receiving tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and steroids as primary maintenance immunosuppression.
