About this trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lower dose calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) in combination with Everolimus in Korean heart transplant recipients.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients who are appropriate for combination therapy with Everolimus and Calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) at the investigator's discretion

Disqualifiers

Recipients who have had a prior organ transplant, or who underwent a heart transplant with the simultaneous transplantation of another organ.

Recipients of heart from ABO-incompatible donor

Recipients of heart from the donor aged 70 or older
