Effectiveness of tacrolimus therapy in refractory ulcerative colitis compared to infliximab with propensity score matching [PDF]
There is insufficient evidence comparing the outcomes of tacrolimus-based remission induction therapy with infliximab in refractory ulcerative colitis (UC) and evidence regarding optimal strategies after tacrolimus-based remission induction therapy.

Human kidney organoids model the tacrolimus nephrotoxicity and elucidate the role of autophagy [PDF]
Background/Aims Tacrolimus has been used as an immunosuppressive agent in organ transplantation. Despite the therapeutic benefits, tacrolimus’s use is limited due to its nephrotoxicity.

Background and Purpose: Several formulations of tacrolimus are available, but evidence of the benefit of changing to the most recent formulations is lacking. Tacrolimus intra-patient variability (tacrolimus IPV) is an emerging risk factor associated with

Tacrolimus monitoring in hair samples of kidney transplant recipients
BackgroundCalcineurin inhibitors, including tacrolimus, remain a cornerstone of immunosuppressive therapy after kidney transplantation. However, the therapeutic window is narrow, and nephrotoxic side effects occur with overdose, while the risk of ...

Can We Predict Individual Concentrations of Tacrolimus After Liver Transplantation? Application and Tweaking of a Published Population Pharmacokinetic Model in Clinical Practice [PDF]
Background: Various population pharmacokinetic models have been developed to describe the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus in adult liver transplantation. However, their extrapolated predictive performance remains unclear in clinical practice. The purpose of this study was to predict concentrations using a selected literature model and to improve these ...

Tacrolimus is the mainstay of immunosuppression in liver transplantation to prevent rejection. However, the clinical use of tacrolimus is complicated by its narrow therapeutic window and significant intra-patient variability (IPV). High tacrolimus IPV is
