Study Summary

Previous studies have shown that elderly patients experience higher trough levels of tacrolimus and are more sensitive to the effects of medications, they experience higher occurrence and severity of such medication related toxicities. Therefore, the investigators hypothesize that by transitioning patients from tacrolimus immediate release to Envarsus ®, the peak-dose effect will be eliminated or attenuated, leading to a significant decrease in neurocognitive toxicities in the older patient population.

Primary Outcome

Change in MOCA (Montreal Cognitive Assessment) from baseline to study end. MOCA scale runs from 0 to 30 with higher being a better outcome. Change in DSST (Digital Symbol Substitution Test) from baseline to study end. DSST scale runs from 1 to 125 with higher being a better outcome.

Interventions

  • DRUG Envarsus
  • DRUG IR Tacrolimus
