The purpose of the study is to estimate the incidence rates of Post-transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder (PTLD), malignancy and hospitalized infections in adult kidney-only transplant recipients treated with Belatacept, and compared the incidences to the incidences in those treated with Calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) based regimens at the time of transplantation.

Incidences of Post-transplant Lymphoproliferative Disorder (PTLD)
Time frame: 5 years post transplantation
Incidences of hospitalized infections
Time frame: 2 years post transplantation
Incidences of malignancy
Time frame: 5 years post transplantation
Incidence rates of PTLD in adult subgroups of Belatacept- vs. CNI-treated, kidney-only transplant recipients defined by donor-recipient Epstein Barr virus (EBV) serostatus and by age groups
Time frame: Every 6 months and 12 months
Location, mortality, and tumor type of all PTLD cases in adult kidney-only transplant recipients treated with Belatacept vs. CNI-based regimens at the time of transplantation and in subgroups of these transplant recipients
Subgroups of the transplant recipients defined by donor-recipient EBV serostatus at the time of transplantation
Time frame: Every 6 months and 12 months
Cumulative incidence of hospitalized infections in adult kidney-only transplant recipients treated with Belatacept vs. CNI-based regimens at the time of transplantation
Hospitalized infections for the following infection groups: 1. Bacterial 2. fungal 3. Viral 4. Tuberculosis 5. Herpes and 6. Cytomegalovirus (CMV)
Time frame: Every 6 months and 12 months
Incidence rates of graft rejection in adult kidney-only transplant recipients treated with Belatacept vs. CNI-based regimens at the time of transplantation
Time frame: Every 6 months and 12 months
Incidence rates of graft failure in adult kidney-only transplant recipients treated with Belatacept vs. CNI-based regimens at the time of transplantation
