Summary

The purpose of this study was to allow the continuation of everolimus treatment in patients who have completed the core study (NCT00170885) and to collect long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy data in a group of patients treated with the upper everolimus target levels plus very low dose cyclosporin in comparison with the standard everolimus target levels plus low dose cyclosporin in patients with renal transplantation.

Conditions

  • Transplantation Infection

Interventions

DRUG

Everolimus 0.25 and 0.75 mg tablets

The dose of everolimus for each patient was adjusted to achieve the target everolimus blood level range. Everolimus blood trough level was measured 5 days after any dose adjustment to verify that the blood level was within the desired target level range.

DRUG

Cyclosporine very low dose (150-300 ng/mL) microemulsion

The dose of cyclosporine for each patient was adjusted to achieve the target cyclosporine blood level. Cyclosporine dose adjustments were based on drug blood level determined from whole blood samples taken 2 hours (± 10 min) after the morning dose.

DRUG

Cyclosporine low dose (350-500 ng/mL) microemulsion

The dose of cyclosporine for each patient was adjusted to achieve the target cyclosporine blood level. Cyclosporine dose adjustments were based on drug blood level determined from whole blood samples taken 2 hours (± 10 min) after the morning dose.
