Variances in the Use of Everolimus in Kidney Transplantation: A 2-Year Registry of Everyday Practice.

Background: Everolimus (EVL)-based immunosuppressive strategies may permit the reduction of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) and their side effects, while offering a safe and efficient treatment. Our aim was to describe our experience with EVL in everyday practice and provide information for its optimal utilization.

Methods: Prospective, multicenter study of 181 kidney transplant recipients treated with EVL as part of their immunosuppressive regimen, with a follow-up of 24 months.

Use of everolimus in renal transplant recipients: data from a national registry.

Proliferation signal inhibitors, such as everolimus, offer immunosuppression without the toxicity of calcineurin inhibitors. This descriptive and prospective study reports outcomes at 1 year and predictors of improved estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in 174 renal transplant recipients from a national registry of the use of everolimus. At 1 year after conversion, 48.
