About this study

Basiliximab has been a routine induction therapeutic agent even for well-matched living kidney transplantation(KT) with tacrolimus-based immunosuppression in Korea. As tacrolimus is a different drug from cyclosporine, the investigators study the usefulness of tacrolimus-based immunosuppression without basiliximab in well matched living KT.

Read the detailed description

The investigators omit basiliximab induction therapy in patients who underwent one to three-HLA mismatched living donor renal transplantation. Participants should receive ABO compatible and T-flow negative transplants. The investigators compare the results of intervention group with conventionally treated control group (age and sex matched patient who underwent one to three-HLA mismatched living donor renal transplants with basiliximab induction therapy).

Being tested
Basiliximab, No basiliximab, Kidney transplantation

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of rejection

    The investigators measures incidence of rejection by serum creatinine, urinalysis and kidney allograft biopsy.

    Measured: within 3 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Incidence of infection

    The investigators measures incidence of infection such as CMV, BKV infection, pneumonia, urinary tract infection and other infections.

    Measured: postoperative 6 month, 1 year, 1.5 year, 2 years and 3 years
