The investigators believe that the pharmacological properties of Envarsus®, well studied in kidney transplantation, may be also suitable after simultaneous kidney and pancreas transplantation than Prograf. Indeed, Envarsus® has demonstrated a clinical efficacy and safety in a complete clinical development plan. This study is to establish the pharmacokinetic profile of tacrolimus prolonged-release (hereafter referred to as 'ENVARSUS®') in diabetics who have undergone kidney and pancreas transplantation, and compare it to the pharmacokinetic profile of standard twice-daily tacrolimus. The study will be conducted in 25 patients hospitalized at Nantes University Hospital.
