The purpose of the study is to compare the pharmacokinetic parameters of three different formulations of tacrolimus. Eligible patients will be treated with all three formulations in a pre-defined sequence.
The pharmacokinetic parameters T(max), C(max) and AUC(0-24) will be compared between the three formulations Envarsus XR once daily, Astagraf XL once daily and Prograf Twice daily.

Evaluation of T(Max) for Envarsus XR, Astagraf XL and Prograf.
Tacrolimus whole blood concentrations obtained from the central lab was used for PK analysis. Actual sampling times was used to calculate T(max). Nominal time points used were: Prograf sampling strategy (21 samples): Pre-dose (C0) and then 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 12.5, 13, 13.5, 14, 14.5, 15, 16, 18, 20, and 24. Envarsus XR sampling strategy (18 samples): Pre-dose (C0) and then 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 21, 24, and 27. Astagraf XL sampling strategy (17 samples): Pre-dose (C0) and then 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 21, and 24.
Time frame: 8 days
Evaluation of C(Max) for Envarsus XR, Astagraf XL and Prograf.
Tacrolimus whole blood concentrations obtained from the central lab was used for PK analysis. Actual sampling times was used to calculate C(max). Nominal time points used were: Prograf sampling strategy (21 samples): Pre-dose (C0) and then 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 12.5, 13, 13.5, 14, 14.5, 15, 16, 18, 20, and 24. Envarsus XR sampling strategy (18 samples): Pre-dose (C0) and then 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 21, 24, and 27. Astagraf XL sampling strategy (17 samples): Pre-dose (C0) and then 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 21, and 24.

Astagraf XL sampling strategy (17 samples): Pre-dose (C0) and then 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 21, and 24.
