简要总结
Transition from tacrolimus based triple therapy with Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) and steroids in stable renal transplant patients to low intensity tacrolimus, everolimus and prednisone will be associated with improvement in Glomular Filtration Rate (GFR) and allograft fibrosis.

结局指标
主要结局
Kidney Allograft Fibrosis Assessment
时间窗: 1 year
Measure and compare the change in interstitial fibrosis (morphometric analysis of trichrome stained slides) at one-year post-transplant in patients converted to everolimus, low intensity tacrolimus and prednisone versus the standard of care tacrolimus, mycophenolate and prednisone regimen. The scale is a percentage of the tissue that demonstrates fibrosis. The scale range is 0 to 100%. The higher the percentage, the worse the fibrosis and the poorer the prognosis. A lower score (percentage) is therefore better.
