Abstract excerpt
Tacrolimus (TAC) exhibits substantial interindividual pharmacokinetic variability, complicating early dose optimization after kidney transplantation. This study evaluated the effects of CYP3A5 rs776746 (6986A > G), CYP3A4 rs4646437 (G > A), and ABCB1 rs1045642 (3435C > T) genetic variations on TAC metabolism during the first post-transplant month. In 120 kidney transplant recipients, TAC exposure was assessed...
