First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 18, 2026 · Updated 29 times
Summary
This study tests whether two drugs, everolimus and epoetin, can help liver transplant recipients safely stop taking their standard anti-rejection medication (tacrolimus). The goal is to achieve 'operational tolerance,' where the body accepts the new liver without needing lifelong drugs. Twenty adults who are 1-10 years post-transplant and stable on tacrolimus will be enrolled. The main focus is safety, checking for infections, cancers, and serious side effects.
