The effect of rapamycin (RAPA) and cyclosporine A (CsA) monotherapy and combination therapy was examined in prevention of kidney allograft rejection in the mouse. Both drugs were administered orally for up to 14 days in BALB/c (H-2(d)) to C57BL/6 (H-2(b)) mice strong combination. Six groups were treated with RAPA and/or CsA. This study shows that concomitant therapy of RAPA and CsA produces strong synergistic interaction in prolonging renal allograft survival in mice when compared with monotherapy of RAPA or CsA.
