Brief description People who undergo kidney transplantation require potent anti-rejection medications. Dosing is difficult. Two people given the same drug dose can have markedly different blood drug concentrations. If drug concentrations too low, there is an increased risk of rejection. If too high, there is an increased risk of drug side effects, infections and cancer. This study aims to find out why different people need different doses and to improve dosing methods, thereby improving patient outcomes.
