Condition: Heart Transplant Failure and Rejection · Sponsor: University of Utah
Immunosuppressive therapy is required to prevent organ rejection, however, dosing of immunosuppressive agents is complicated by patient-specific differences impacting the body's absorption and elimination of these agents. The goal of this research proposal is to clinically validate an innovative precision medicine strategy for dosing the immunosuppressant tacrolimus in pediatric heart transplant, which will in turn lead to improvements in long-term transplant survival outcomes. The strategy and techniques used in this project can be extended to improve drug therapy across multiple pediatric diseases requiring chronic therapy.
