Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pharmacokinetic profiles

    Pharmacokinetic parameters include the maximum concentration, trough concentration, area under the whole-blood concentration-time curve between 0 and 12 hours, time to maximum concentration, volume of distribution at steady state, and clearance at steady state.

    Post-operation day 8-10

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Acute rejection

    Within the first 2 weeks post-transplantation

Study Arms (2)

Everolimus
