Interventions
Participants in Group 1 will transition to sirolimus therapy on day 14 (+/- 5 days) - weight \<40 kg will receive 3mg/m\^ 2, with maintenance dose of 1 mg/m\^2 divided BID - weight \>= 40kg will receive 6mg/m\^ 2, with maintenance dose of 2 mg daily
Belatacept will be administered as an intravenous infusion over 30 minutes. The belatacept dose for the study is 10 mg/kg on post-operative day (POD) 1, 5, 14, 28, 56, 84 for the first 3 months, followed by 5 mg/kg every 4 weeks (+/-4 days), starting on month 4 until month 24
Mycophenolate Mofetil-MMF will be initiated at 600 mg/m\^2 BID until tacrolimus is at therapeutic levels, then 450 mg/m\^2 BID
Participants will receive Prograf® (tacrolimus), or generic, initiated at 0.1 mg/kg BID within 48 hours of transplantation to attain target trough levels. Participants in Group 1 will be transitioned to sirolimus 2-4 weeks post-transplant
Participants will receive induction therapy with anti-thymocyte globulin (1.5 mg/kg/dose, maximum 125 mg) starting intraoperatively on day 0 and continuing on days 2 and 3 (total dose 4.5 mg/kg). Total dose may be extended to 6 mg/kg over 1-2 days for delayed graft function
Participants will receive Prograf® (tacrolimus), or generic, initiated at 0.1 mg/kg BID within 48 hours of transplantation to attain target trough levels
