Everolimus after liver transplant to lower liver cancer return

Liver transplant study for severe worsening liver failure
This study looks at when liver transplant is offered and what outcomes happen in people with cirrhosis who have severe “acute-on-chronic” worsening. It may help doctors decide which patients benefit most from transplant and improve care after listing or not listing.

Testing everolimus and epoetin for liver transplant tolerance
This trial is testing whether a combination of two drugs, everolimus and epoetin, can help liver transplant recipients gradually reduce their anti-rejection medicines. If successful, it may lead to long-term transplant tolerance with fewer side effects.

You stay in control
