Primary Outcome Measures:
- Feasibility of oral application everolimus
- Daily dose needed to reach the targeted plasma level everolimus
- Time to reach the targeted plasma level of everolimus
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Incidence and severity of treatment induced toxic events
- Incidence, severity and seriousness of adverse events
- Treatment induced morbidity
- Treatment induced 1-year-mortality
- Efficacy of everolimus/CSA/prednisolone on aGVHD

| Estimated Enrollment: | 10 |
| Study Start Date: | September 2006 |
The primary objective of the present study is to evaluate the feasibility of treatment with everolimus in combination with CSA/prednisolone in patients with aGVHD after allogeneic HSCT. This evaluation takes into account the following parameters:
- Feasibility of oral application everolimus
- Daily dose needed to reach the targeted plasma level everolimus
- Time to reach the targeted plasma level of everolimusSecondary objectivesThe study will evaluate the toxicity and safety of the treatment with ever-olimus/CSA/prednisolone with regard to
- Incidence and severity of treatment induced toxic events
- Incidence, severity and seriousness of adverse events
- Treatment induced morbidity
- Treatment induced 1-year-mortality Furthermore the study will collect data about
- Efficacy of everolimus/CSA/prednisolone on aGVHD
- Drug interactions between everolimus and CSA
