Impact of Tacrolimus, Sirolimus, Age, and Body Mass Index on the Occurrence of Skin Cancer and Islet Dysfunction After Transplantation by Christopher Orr, Jeannette Stratton, Mohamed El-Shahawy, Elena Forouhar, Alice Peng, Gagandeep Singh, Keiko Omori, Meirigeng Qi, Fouad Kandeel

“…High tacrolimus % (>35) resulted in a 4.6-fold increase in skin cancer frequency, whereas sirolimus above 75% of the combined therapy led to a 5.2-fold increase in islet graft dysfunction (IGD) events/year. By calculating the maximum safe exposure (MSE) to tacrolimus % according to patient age and BMI, we found that cumulative months spent above MSE was predictive of skin cancer (1.20-fold increase, P = 0.003). …”
