An 18 Month Extension to the Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label Trial (NCT00170885) to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Two Regimens of Everolimus Plus Cyclosporine Microemulsion, Given According to Different Blood Target Levels, in de Novo Renal Transplant Recipients
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Everolimus 0.25 and 0.75 mg tablets, Cyclosporine very low dose (150-300 ng/mL) microemulsion, and 1 other intervention for Transplantation Infection. Completed, enrolled 223 participants.
Detailed 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.

Interventions
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.
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.
