Abstract:
Maintenance immunosuppression in solid organ transplantation has been restricted to three drugs for many years, corticosteroids, azathioprine and cyclosporine. There has been need for more selective drugs with better ratio of efficacy to side effects. During the last decade a variety of new immunosuppressive agents has been under development and some of them are now at hand.
