Primary Outcome Measures:

change in coronary artery calcification score [ Time Frame: 3 years ]
Comparison in a randomised way the effect of a calcineurin-based immunosuppressive regimen with an mTOR-based regimen on progression of coronary calcification on renal transplant patients.

The results of this study will provide more insight in protection against cardiovascular disease in renal transplant patients.
