Safety and Efficacy of Treatment With Ultra-low Dose Subcutaneous IL-2 to Promote Regulatory T Cells Post Renal Transplantation

To investigate the safety and tolerability of treatment with low dose rIL-2 in renal
transplant recipients. To assess the immunologic impact of low dose rIL-2 in renal transplant
recipients. To assess the efficacy of low dose rIL-2 in renal transplant recipients.
