Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the delayed administration of everolimus could reduce the everolimus associated "anti-proliferative complications" (e.g. wound healing disorder) while maintaining efficacy, when compared to the immediate administration of everolimus in de novo renal transplant patients.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Number of Participants Considered in Failure for the Primary Failure Endpoint at 3 Months
"In Failure", is at least one of these events occurred within the first 3 months: delayed graft function(DGF), (need for dialysis within the first 7 days,minus day one,post-transplantation); Biopsy proven acute rejection (BPAR), Graft loss, (allograft was presumed lost on the day the patient started and not removable from dialysis). Death; Loss to follow-up; Wound healing disorder(Any wound related to the kidney transplantation being opened beyond 3 weeks, or infected, or drained fluid or herniated was considered not healed).
Month 3
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Number of Participants Considered in Failure for the Primary Failure Endpoint at 6 Months Post-transplantation.
at 6 Month post-transplantation
Number of Participants Considered in Failure for the Primary Failure Endpoint at 12 Months Post-transplantation.
at 12 Month post-transplantation
Number of Participants Who Underwent Any Dialysis Within the 12-month Treatment Period
Month 12

Study Arms (2)
Immediate Everolimus
ACTIVE COMPARATORPatients received Everolimus starting within 48 hours of kidney transplant through to the end of the study, administered orally twice a day. Dose was adjusted in order to maintain a trough level between 3-8 ng/mL.
Delayed Everolimus
EXPERIMENTALPatients received Everolimus 4 weeks after kidney transplant until the end of the study, administered orally twice a day. The dose was adjusted in order to maintain a trough level between 3-8 ng/mL. Patients received mycophenolic acid until everolimus was initiated.
