简要总结
This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of CellCept (1.5-2g/day po), in combination with a standard care regimen of cyclosporine A (trough level 150-200ng/mL) and steroids, in patients receiving a heart transplant. The anticipated time on study treatment is 24 weeks.

研究组 & 干预措施
MMF, CsA, Corticosteroids
Participants received mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) 1.0 grams (g), orally (PO), twice daily (BID) from within 24 hours of transplantation through Week 24. Participants also received an initial loading dose of cyclosporine A (CsA) 4 to 6 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg) within 48 hours of transplantation, adjusted thereafter to a blood trough concentration of 150 to 300 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) through Week 24. Participants also received corticosteroids as per the practice of each participating center.

结局指标
主要结局
Percentage of Participants With Biopsy Proven Acute Rejection (BPAR) by Week
时间窗: Day 1, Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24
Percentage of participants with BPAR of greater than or equal to (≥) International Society of Heart and Lung Transplant (ISHLT) Grade III. The ISHLT graded symptoms on a scale of Grade 0 through VI. Grade 0 equals (=) no rejection. Grade IA = regional (perivascular or interstitial) infiltration and no necrosis, and grade IB = dissemination but little infiltration and no necrosis. Grade II = 1 focus of invasive infiltration with or without (+/-) associated cardiomyocyte necrosis. Grade IIIA = 2 or more foci of invasive infiltration +/- associated cardiomyocyte necrosis, and grade IIIB = diffuse inflammatory pathological changes associated with cardiomyocyte necrosis. Grade IV = diffuse, infiltrative multi-foci +/- edema; +/- hemorrhage; and +/-vasculitis.
