Conclusions: Tac was more effective than CsA in preventing AR after early SW, and increased significantly patient probability of maintaining a steroid-free regime. In this setting, Tac and CsA had the same safety profile. However, a follow-up longer than 3 years might be needed to estimate the consequences of the higher rate of AR encountered under CsA therapy.
