Scientific titleRandomised trial to compare the clinical value of cyclosporin C12 and C2 monitoring after lung transplantation
Study objectivesDoes improved control of the variability in exposure to cyclosporin by monitoring C2 in lung transplant recipients help to reduce the propensity of these patients to cyclosporin-associated side effects whilst maintaining effective immunosupression?
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedLung transplant recipients
InterventionPatients will be randomised into 3 groups to compare the clinical value of both 'high' and 'low' C2 monitoring strategies with conventional C12 monitoring as a guide to cyclosporin Neoral dosage adjustment after lung transplantation.
Intervention typeProcedure/Surgery
Primary outcome measureRenal function at 3 months post transplant
Secondary outcome measuresNot provided at time of registration
