Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study Evaluating of Calcineurin Inhibitor and Sirolimus (Rapamune) Treatment in Liver Transplant Recipients (NCT NCT00086346)

NCT ID: NCT00086346

Last Updated: 2010-04-28

Results Overview

GFR is an index of kidney function. GFR was calculated using Cockcroft-Gault method. A normal GFR is \>90 mL/min, higher values indicate better function. Change=adjusted mean of 12 months minus baseline. Mean adjusted for baseline GFR, with antimetabolite therapy status and hepatitis C status as fixed effects.

Measure
Sirolimus (SRL) Conversion
Sirolimus was administered once daily. A loading dose of sirolimus, 10 to 15 mg, was administered in divided doses on day 1: the first dose was given after collection of the sirolimus trough level and a minimum of 4 hours following the last dose of CNI, and the second dose approximately 12 hours after the first dose. On days 2 through 6, sirolimus was administered in a dose of 3 to 5 mg/day. For the remaining study period, day 7 through month 72, appropriate daily doses of sirolimus were administered to attain the recommended trough concentrations of 8 to 16 ng/mL (using a chromatographic method) or 10 to 20 ng/mL (using an immunoassay).
Calcineurin Inhibitors (CNI) Continuation
Calcineurin Inhibitors administered per local practice to attain target trough levels of 3 to 10 ng/mL (tacrolimus) or 50 to 250 ng/mL (cyclosporin A), respectively.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 12 months

Population: The intent to treat population was analyzed and consisted of all patients randomly assigned to treatment. Patients were stratified by hepatitis C status and whether or not they were receiving antimetabolite therapy at time of randomization.

GFR is an index of kidney function. GFR was calculated using Cockcroft-Gault method. A normal GFR is \>90 mL/min, higher values indicate better function. Change=adjusted mean of 12 months minus baseline. Mean adjusted for baseline GFR, with antimetabolite therapy status and hepatitis C status as fixed effects.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 months

Population: Intent to treat analysis population with stratification by antimetabolite therapy and hepatitis C status.

Endpoint was a composite assessment of patient and graft survival. Patients categorized as graft survival or graft loss. Graft loss defined as pure graft loss (requiring retransplant) or death (with a functioning graft), if the event occurred in the first 12 months after randomization. Patients with missing graft data were counted as graft losses.

Measure
Sirolimus (SRL) Conversion
n=389 participants at risk
Sirolimus was administered once daily. A loading dose of sirolimus, 10 to 15 mg, was administered in divided doses on day 1: the first dose was given after collection of the sirolimus trough level and a minimum of 4 hours following the last dose of CNI, and the second dose approximately 12 hours after the first dose. On days 2 through 6, sirolimus was administered in a dose of 3 to 5 mg/day. For the remaining study period, day 7 through month 72, appropriate daily doses of sirolimus were administered to attain the recommended trough concentrations of 8 to 16 ng/mL (using a chromatographic method) or 10 to 20 ng/mL (using an immunoassay).
Calcineurin Inhibitors (CNI) Continuation
n=210 participants at risk
Calcineurin Inhibitors administered per local practice to attain target trough levels of 3 to 10 ng/mL (tacrolimus) or 50 to 250 ng/mL (cyclosporin A), respectively.
