Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study Investigating Rapamune For Post-Marketing Surveillance (NCT NCT00484094)

NCT ID: NCT00484094

Last Updated: 2017-01-16

Results Overview

All AEs reported after the start of administration of Rapamune were considered as treatment-emergent AEs and summarized. All AEs, except for those with causal relationship to the study drug assessed as "unlikely", were considered as AEs whose causal relationship to the study drug could not be excluded and classified as ADRs. Unexpected AEs/ADRs were classified by medical review with reference to the local product document and confirmed by Pfizer.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Six months (±1 month) after initiating Rapamune administration or until completion of Rapamune administration, whichever was earlier.

Population: This analysis was not performed because laboratory data were not collected during the study.

Laboratory test was not mandatory because this study was a non-interventional study.

Outcome measures

Outcome data not reported

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: At 6 months (±1 month) after initiating Rapamune administration or at the time of completion of Rapamune administration, whichever was earlier.

Population: Efficacy Analysis Set: Participants with efficacy data recorded on the case report form (CRF) at 6 months (±1 month) after initiating Rapamune administration or at the time of completing Rapamune administration (whichever was earlier) were included in the Efficacy Analysis Set.

Renal biopsy was required to confirm the diagnosis of acute rejection. However, due to the non-interventional nature of this study, biopsy could not be mandatory. The decision of whether to perform a biopsy was made at the discretion of the investigator and the result was collected if performed.
