Abstract
Calcineurin inhibitor-free immunosuppression with everolimus is an effective and safe option in selected maintenance HTx patients. Most adverse effects under everolimus occurred early after conversion and in most cases resolved without intervention within a few weeks. Refining selection criteria may help both in identifying patients who will profit most from switching and in alleviating the need to reintroduce CNI therapy.
