Study design details

Study design

This study is a secondary data project designed as a retrospective, non-interventional, observational, multi-center chart review conducted in adult patients 18 years old and over, who underwent whole liver transplantation and received ADVAGRAF therapy.

Main study objective

The main aim of this study is to collect information about the long-term outcomes of people treated with ADVAGRAF in Spain.
Researchers will learn about the health of people treated with ADVAGRAF. They will also learn how other factors affect long-term outcomes.
This includes their age, sex, kidney health, and how severe their liver disease was before the transplant. This will be for people treated with ADVAGRAF after their liver transplant.
