Study Summary

This study is being done with the purpose of trying to understand if and why transplant recipients may develop tolerance to their transplanted organ. Tolerance means being able to lower or take away immunosuppression (anti-rejection medications) without causing organ rejection.

Primary Outcome

* Dendritic cell assays: myeloid vs. lymphoid (CD11c; CD123); maturation and ability to process antigens (CD83; CD205); markers that have been shown to induce regulatory T cells (ILT3; ILT4). * Regulatory/Suppressor Cells (CD4+CD25+FOXP3+CD127low; and CD8+ CD28- FOXP3+CD127low cells). * Liver function and drug levels.

Interventions

  • PROCEDURE Blood Draw - Rapamycin
  • PROCEDURE Blood Draw from Control Subjects
  • PROCEDURE Blood Draw - CyA
  • PROCEDURE Blood Draw - Tacrolimus
  • PROCEDURE Blood Draw - MMF
