Everolimus in de novo kidney transplant recipients participating in the Eurotransplant senior program: results of a prospective randomized multicenter study (SENATOR)

Early conversion to everolimus was assessed in kidney transplant recipients participating in the Eurotransplant Senior Program (ESP), a population in whom data are lacking. The SENATOR multicenter study enrolled 207 kidney transplant recipients undergoing steroid withdrawal at week 2 post-transplant...

Zusammenfassung:Early conversion to everolimus was assessed in kidney transplant recipients participating in the Eurotransplant Senior Program (ESP), a population in whom data are lacking. The SENATOR multicenter study enrolled 207 kidney transplant recipients undergoing steroid withdrawal at week 2 post-transplant (ClinicalTrials.gov [NCT00956293]). At week 7, patients were randomized (1:2 ratio) to continue the previous calcineurin inhibitor (CNI)-based regimen with mycophenolic acid (MPA) and cyclosporine or switch to a CNI-free regimen with MPA, everolimus (5-10 ng/mL) and basiliximab at weeks 7 and 12, then followed for 18 weeks to month 6 post-transplant. The primary endpoint was estimated GFR (eGFR). At week 7, 77/207 (37.2%) patients were randomized (53 everolimus, 24 control). At month 6, eGFR was comparable: 36.5±10.8ml/min with everolimus versus 42.0±13.0ml/min in the control group (p = 0.784). Discontinuation due to adverse events occurred in 27.8% of everolimus-treated patients and 0.0% of control patients (p = 0005). Efficacy profiles showed no difference. In conclusion, eGFR, safety and efficacy outcomes at month 6 post-transplant showed no difference between groups. The everolimus group experienced a higher rate of discontinuation due to adverse events. However, the high rate of non-randomization is highly relevant, indicating this to be a somewhat unstable patient population regardless of treatment.
