Timeline
Interventions
All subjects received induction therapy with basiliximab or rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin, in the peritransplant period.
All subjects received maintenance therapy with corticosteroids throughout the 24 month study period. A minimum dose of 5 mg prednisone, or equivalent, per day was maintained.
Everolimus with reduced calcineurin inhibitor- everolimus (target trough level of 3-8 ng/mL) in combination with reduced exposure to CNI (cyclosporine or tacrolimus)
Mycophenolate (mycophenolic acid sodium or mycophenolate mofetil) in combination with standard exposure to calcineurin inhibitor (cyclosporine or tacrolimus).
