Further study details as provided by Novartis:

Primary Outcome Measures:

Incidence of NODM or impaired fasting glucose (IFG) in de novo kidney transplant patients receiving Neoral versus in patients receiving tacrolimus within the first 6 months post-transplantation.
Incidence of biopsy-proven acute rejection (BPAR) or graft loss or death within the first 6 months post-transplantation.

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Effects Neoral & tacrolimus on glucose metabolism de novo kidney transplant patients assessed by:
incidence of NODM or IFG within the first 3 mths post-transplantation in pts treated with Neoral or tacrolimus
percentage of pts with preexisting diabetes at transplantation who have a glycosylated hemoglobin level >7% at Mths 3 &6 post-transplantation
Change over time of mean HbA1c at mths 3 &6 post-transplantation in pts w/ preexisting diabetes at transplantation
percentage of pts who switched from oral hypoglycemic agents to insulin within 3 &6 mths post-transplantation
incidence of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) as assessed by an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) performed at 3 &6 months
post-transplantation.
Blood pressure at Months 3& 6 post-transplantation
in de novo kidney transplant recipients treated w/ Neoral or tacrolimus.
Efficacy of Neoral &tacrolimus in de novo kidney transplant pts by the incidence of BPAR or graft loss or death within the first 3 months post-transplantation, as well as the incidence of each individual event within 3 and 6 months post-transplantation.
