Core Tip |
Everolimus has a completely different mechanism of action to that of current basal calcineurine inhibitors used worldwide in liver transplantation. This immunosuppressant has a good profile for patients with pre- and post transplant renal dysfunction, one of the main concerns nowadays. It has also a promising role in cancer patients which is common in liver transplantation, either as an underlying disease (hepatocarcinoma in cirrhosis), or as de novo developing tumors. We present our off-protocol experience with partial/total and early/late conversion to everolimus, highlighting its efficacy and safety in fitting with the different emerging scenarios after liver transplantation. |
