Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether Campath following Tacrolimus monotherapy is more effective in the prevention of renal graft rejection considering an acute rejection rate of 5 for Campath-1HTacrolimus and of 22 for TacrolimusMMFSteroids
Detailed Description: Major advances in immunosuppressive therapy have resulted in long-term graft survival by the use of various drug combinationsHowever these combinations carry the risk of eg infection malignancy renal damage hypertension diabetes hyperlipidemia hirsutism cushingoid facial appearance and bone necrosisTherefore one of the major goals should be to reduce immunosuppression without increasing risk of rejections

Based on good results of a pilot study not a single acute rejection episode during the 18-20 months observation period despite low level of Tacrolimus and absence of steroids this randomised trial was designed to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of Campath-1H
