ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Tacrolimus (TAC) may be less unfavorable than cyclosporin A (CsA) on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in renal transplant recipients, but well controlled studies are insufficient.METHODS:
In this prospective randomized controlled study, fifty seven consecutive renal transplant recipients were treated with CsA-based (CsA, MMF and steroid, CsA group n=27) or TAC-based (TAC, MMF and steroid, TAC group n=30) immunosuppressive regimens by randomized ratio of 11. In the baseline (pre-operation), 1, 3, and 6 months after transplantation, several cardiovascular risk factors and graft function were evaluated.RESULTS:
There were no significant differences in the renal function, glucose regulation, the incidence of acute rejection and post-transplant diabetes mellitus for the post-transplant 6 months between the two groups. The blood pressure of the CsA group was maintained higher than TAC group through 6 months after transplantation even though the number of antihypertensive drugs in the CsA group was significantly higher at 3 and 6 month after transplantation. The lipid profiles except oxidized LDL were similar, but oxidized LDL level was significantly higher for the post-transplant 6 months in the CsA group (p<0.05). There were no significant differences in levels of fibrinogen, PAI-I, t-PA, hs-CRP, homocysteine, spot urine TGF-beta a and beta ig-h3, but the uric acid level was significantly higher in the CsA group (p<0.05).CONCLUSION:
This study demonstrates that TAC tends to have a beneficial effect on cardiovascular risk profiles, with regard to BP and atherogenic properties of serum lipids in early post-transplant period.
