Description
Key inclusion criteria
Stable liver transplant recipients are eligible for inclusion in this study and have to fulfill all of the following criteria:
- Liver Transplant Recipients have received liver transplantations for at least 6+1 months prior to enrollment
- Liver Transplant Recipients have no acute rejection episodes within 3 months prior to the enrollment and are clinically stable
- Liver Transplant Recipients have been treated with twice-daily regimen of tacrolimus(TAC) plus everolimus(EVR) and TAC and EVR trough levels have stayed within targeted ranges for at least 6 weeks prior to enrollment
- Provide written informed consent prior to inclusion.
- Liver transplant recipients who are 18-65 years of age of a primary liver transplant
- Allograft functioning at an acceptable level as defined by the AST, ALT, Total Bilirubin levels ≤3 times ULN prior to enrollment.
- Abbreviated MDRD eGFR ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73m2. Key exclusion criteria
Patients fulfilling any of the following criteria are not eligible for inclusion in this study:
- Patients who are recipients of multiple solid organ or islet cell tissue transplants, or have previously received an organ or tissue transplant. Patients who have a combined liver-kidney transplant.
- History of malignancy of any organ system (other than localized basal cell carcinoma of the skin), treated or untreated, within the past 5 years, regardless of whether there is evidence of local recurrence or metastases.
- Existence of any surgical, medical or mental conditions, other than the current transplantation, which, in the opinion of the investigator, might interfere with the objectives of the study.
- Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Tacrolimus and Everolimus BID
TAC BID (C0 2.5-5 ng/mL) EVR BID (1.0 mg BID targeted to C0 3-8 ng/mL) Other Names:
|
In the TAC and EVR BID arm, everolimus will be initiated at a dose of 1.0 mg BID within 24 h of randomization with the dose adjusted from day 5 onward to maintain trough (C0) concentration in the range 3-8 ng/mL. Tacrolimus will be initiated at a dose of 0.15 mg/kg BID and then taper to 0.10 mg/kg BID to maintain trough (C0) concentration in the range 2.5-5 ng/mL. In the TAC and EVR QD arm, everolimus will be initiated at a dose of 2.0 mg QD within 24 h of randomization with the dose adjusted from day 5 onward to maintain trough (C0) concentration in the range 3-8 ng/mL. Tacrolimus will be initiated at a dose of 0.1-0.2 mg/kg/day QD to maintain trough (C0) concentration in the range 2.5-5 ng/mL.
