Abstract:
Objective To demonstrate the efficacy and safety of Hangzhou tacrolimus capsule(Saishi Tac capsule, Hangzhou Zhongmei Huadong Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd, China) in Chinese kidney transplant recipients. Methods Multicenter, randomized open-labeled, prospective controlled clinical trial was performed in de novo Chinese kidney transplant recipients. According to including and excluding criterions, 65 kidney recipients from 9 transplant centers were enrolled. The mean age of recipients was (36.53 ± 5.71 ) years, and 8 received living donor transplantion. The time of cold ischemia and warm ischemia was (4.08 ± 5.43) h and (3.90 ± 2.15) min respectively. The number of mismatched HLA was (2.1 ± 0.8). The recipients accepted Saishi Tac capsule + mycophenolate steroid 60 days, followed by 5-10 μg/L until the terminal observation time point (12 weeks after transplantation). The efficacy and safety were estimated during the period. The primary efficacy endpoint of the study was the incidence of biopsy-confirmed acute rejection. Graft survival and renal function (evaluated by serum creatinine) were the secondary endpoints. Safety was assessed by monitoring laboratory parameters and adverse events reported over the course of the study, such as infection, hepatic damage, hypertension, hyperlipema, diabetes mellitus and other adverse affairs.Results The dose of Tac at 1 st, 2nd, 4th and 8th week postoperation was (6.54 ± 1.69), (6.39 ±1.45),(6.73± 1.25), (6.25 ± 1.02) and (6.03 ± 1.16) mg, corresponding values to the C0 were (8.24±2.09),(9.39± 1.35),(9.93± 1.87),(7.23± 1.16) and (6.43± 1.26) μg/L. During 12weeks of follow-up, the incidence of biopsy-confirmed acute rejection was 12.3% (8/65), among which 6 cases were reversed by implosive therapy. The survival rate of graft kidney was 96.9% (63/65). The incidence of hypertension and hepatic damage was both 7.7% and morbidity of lung infection was 7.6%. There were 3 patients (4.6%) complicated with hyperlipema and diabetes mellitus respectively. Conclusion During the first 3 months of treatment Saishi Tac capsule was safe and effective to Chinese kidney transplant recipients.
