Study Comparing Sirolimus/Prograf vs Sirolimus/CsA in High-Risk Renal Transplant Recipients

The purpose of this study is to assess whether in high-risk kidney transplant patients (patients whose previous kidney transplant failed, have a high PRA lab test result or are of African-American descent) that a combination of Rapamune with Prograf and steroids will prevent acute rejection as well as Rapamune and cyclosporine and steroids.
