Summary: to evaluate prevention effect of combination therapy of everolimus and low-dose tacrolimus in comparison with standard-dose tacrolimus therapy with mycophenolic acid on the new onset diabetes mellitus after transplantation in the renal allograft recipients

an open-label, randomized, multi-center, comparative parallel study to evaluate prevention effect of combination therapy of everolimus and low-dose tacrolimus in comparison with standard-dose tacrolimus therapy with mycophenolic acid on the new onset diabetes mellitus after transplantation in the renal allograft recipients: protect study
