The objective of the study is to demonstrate safety and efficacy of once-daily Advagraf in adult population undergoing kidney or liver transplantation in India.
This is a phase IV, multi-centre, open label prospective study of once daily Advagraf in 200 patients undergoing kidney or liver transplantation in India. Adult patients undergoing kidney or liver transplantation and meeting all other eligibility criteria will be enrolled in the study. Enrolled patients will be administered once daily dose of Advagraf for 12 weeks. During these 12 weeks a total of 9 regular visits will be undertaken.

NODAT is defined as a composite endpoint consisting of first occurrence of one of 4 parameters: (1) Two fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels \> 126 mg/dL which are \> 30 days apart. (2) Oral hypoglycemic agent use for \> 30 consecutive days. (3) Insulin therapy for \> 30 consecutive days and (4) HbA1c \> 6.5%

For kidney transplant patients: Event rate of patients with biopsy-confirmed acute rejections (BCAR) ≥ Grade I according to -The Banff 2007 working classification of renal allograft pathology within the first 12 weeks following kidney transplantation
The biopsy shall be performed prior to the initiation of any anti-rejection therapy and as soon as possible after the onset of clinical / laboratory signs indicative of possible rejection
Time frame: from Day 0 to Week 12
For liver transplant patients: Event rate of patients with biopsy-confirmed acute rejections (BCAR) with Rejection Activity Index of ≥ 4, within the first 12 weeks following liver transplantation
The biopsy shall be performed prior to the initiation of any anti-rejection therapy and as soon as possible after the onset of clinical / laboratory signs indicative of possible rejection. Biopsy-confirmed acute rejections (BCAR) with Rejection Activity Index was defined according to The 1997 Banff schema for grading liver allograft rejection
Time frame: from Day 0 to Week 12
