Safety and Efficacy of LCP-Tacro™ Once Daily in Stable Renal Transplant Patients Converted From Prograf® Twice Daily

This is 2-armed parallel group, prospective, randomized, open-label, multicenter Phase 3
controlled trial to establish the efficacy and safety of conversion from maintenance
immunosuppressive therapy with Prograf capsules (tacrolimus, Astellas Pharma US, Inc.,
Deerfield, IL) twice daily to maintenance immunotherapy with LCP-Tacro tablets (tacrolimus,
LifeCycle Pharma A/S, Horsholm, Denmark) once daily for the prevention of acute allograft
rejection in stable adult make and female kidney transplant patients. Recipients of kidney
transplant 3 months to 5 years before Screening and on a stable dose of Prograf will be
randomly assigned to be converted from Prograf twice daily to LCP-Tacro once daily or to
remain on maintenance therapy with Prograf twice daily. There will be 11 study visits in the
Treatment period.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Men and women at least 18 years of age who are recipients of a kidney transplant
between 3 months and 5 years before the screening date

- Patients taking oral Prograf® capsules twice daily, at least 2 mg total dose per day,
as part of their maintenance immunosuppression therapy, with tacrolimus trough levels
of 5 to 15 ng/mL

- Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test
within 7 days before receiving study drug

Exclusion Criteria:

- Recipients of any transplanted organ other than kidney

- Recipients of a bone marrow transplant

- Patients with an eGFR (MDRD7) < 30 mL/min at Screening

- Patients with a spot protein:creatinine ratio > 0.5

- Patients with a WBC count ≤ 2.8 ´ 109/L unless the WBC count has been stable for at
least 2 weeks and the absolute neutrophil count is > 1.0 ´ 109 /L

- Patients unable to swallow study medication

- Patients incapable of understanding the purposes and risks of the study, who cannot
give written informed consent and who are unwilling or unable to comply with the
study protocol requirements

- Pregnant or nursing women

- Patients with reproductive potential who are unwilling/unable to use a double barrier

Screening

- Patients withdrawn from corticosteroids less than 30 days before Screening

- Patients with an episode of acute rejection requiring antibody therapy within 3
months before Screening

- Patients treated for acute rejection within 30 days before Screening

- Patients who are hepatitis C virus (HCV) negative who have received an HCV positive
(HCV RNA by polymerase chain reaction or HCV antibody) donor kidney

- Patients seropositive for human immunodeficiency virus

years), except basal or nonmetastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the skin that has
been treated successfully
