The aim of this study is to investigate if conversion of tacrolimus-based immunosuppression to everolimus-based immunosuppression results in preservation of renal function as compared to continued tacrolimus-based immunosuppression. Apart from renal…
The aims of the current study are two-fold. First we will investigate whether a CYP3A5 genotype-based tacrolimus dosing strategy will result in improved clinical outcomes as compared with a standard tacrolimus dosing regimen based on bodyweight.…
To compare in a prospective randomised way the effect of two different immunosuppressive regimens - mTOR-based regimen or CNI-based regimen - on the progression of coronary artery calcification in renal transplant patients measured at baseline, 1, 2…
To evaluate the use of concentration-controlled everolimus, with the reduction or the elimination of tacrolimus, to provide superior renal function and to provide non-inferior rates of the composite efficacy endpoint compared to the tacrolimus…
Primary objective: - evaluation and comparison of the intra- and interpatient variability for the Area under the curve (AUC) of orally administered Tac BID and Tac QD in stable renal transplant patients. Secondary objective: - evaluation and…
To evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of two concentration-controlled everolimus regimen in de novo liver transplant recipients at Month 36 post-transplantation.
To eassess the effect of a switch in immunosuppressive regimen and dosing regimen on renal function, blood pressure and laboratory parameters.To assess the effect on renal function, blood pressue and laboratory parameters of a switc from tacrolimus…
To investigate the safety and efficacy of a programmed introduction of a sirolimus based calcineurin inhibitor free maintenance immunosuppressive regime three months after renal transplantation in recipients of a non-heart-beating donor kidney graft…
1) To assess insulin sensitivity and response in critically ill septic neonates and children. 2) To determine protein balance in septic, critically ill children at baseline and during a Hyperinsulinemic Euglycemic Clamp, while receiving standard or…
The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of a glucagon challenge on hepatic glucose production, abdominal subcutaneous glucose levels in type 2 diabetes patients with and without oral antidiabetics. In addition, endothelial…
To determine whether glucose, lipid and protein metabolism can be accurately measured using stable isotopes in the same patient on two occasions in a 48 hour interval.
- To study the response of active glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP1), Glucagon, Insulin, C-peptide and growth hormone (GH) and liver gluconeogenesis to a glucagon challenge in healthy volunteers- To study the expression of glucagon receptor mRNA in the…
Here, we postulate that the balance between the effect of belatacept on regulatory T-cell function and the relative insensitivity of memory T-cells for belatacept leads to donor-specific alloreactivity. We plan to study the peripheral CD28-dependent…
To identify which brain regions are activated after intranasal application of insulin and how this affects peripheral metabolism.
PRINCIPAL OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether sequential therapy with tacrolimus for 9 months (6 months of full therapy and 3 months of tapering doses) followed by a dose of RTX leads to a greater increase in the proportion of primary MN patients with…
The main objective of the study is to demonstrate the utility and safetyof the IFN-γ ELISPOT marker for the stratification of kidney transplantrecipients into low and high IS regimens. The enrichment study will testnon-inferiority of low IS regimen…
Primary Objective: To investigate the kinetics of the anti-viral effects of VCS, compared to standard of care with TAC, on SARS-CoV-2 over 56 days, in stable KTRs.Secondary Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability of VCS in stable KTRs…
Investigate effect of IF on insulin resistance and possible role acylcarinitin profiles and glycolipids
