Open label, prospective, single-center, randomized, two sequence, three period crossover study to compare the steady state pharmacokinetics of LCP-Tacro tables to generic tacrolimus capsules administered twice daily in stable African-American renal transplant patients.
This is open label, prospective, single-center, randomized, two sequence, three period crossover study to compare the steady state pharmacokinetics of once daily dosing of LCP-Tacro tablets to tacrolimus capsules administered twice daily in stable African American kidney transplant patients. Approximately 72 male and female African American renal transplant patients on table immunosuppression regimens will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to one of two sequences: Sequence 1: (n=36) 18 patients requiring less than 0.15 mg/kg/day and 18 patients requiring equal to or greater than 0.15 mg/kg/day. Patients will continue on generic tacrolimus capsules on days 1-7 (24 hours PK profile on day 7) then patients are switched to LCP-Tacro tablets (at 15% lower dose of twice daily generic tacrolimus) on day 8. Sequence 2: (n=36) 18 patients requiring less than 0.15 mg/kg/day and 18 patients requiring equal to or greater than 0.15 mg/kg/day. Patients will receive LCP-Tacro tablets (at 15% lower dose than generic tacrolimus twice daily formulation) on days 1-7 (24 hour PK profile on day 7) patients are switched back to twice daily generic tacrolimus treatment beginning on day 8.

Evaluation of AUC(0-24) for Envarsus XR and IR-Tac
Tacrolimus whole blood concentrations obtained from the central lab was used for PK analysis. Actual sampling time was used to calculate AUC(0-24). Arithmetic mean and standard deviation is given below. Nominal time points used were: Pre-dose (C0) and then 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18 and 24 hours.
Time frame: Day 7
Evaluation of C(Max) for Envarsus XR and IR-Tac
Tacrolimus whole blood concentrations obtained from the central lab was used for PK analysis. Actual sampling time was used to calculate C(max). Arithmetic mean and standard deviation is given below.
