On the second December episode of JHLT: The Podcast, the Digital Media Editors explore another paper from the December issue of JHLT, entitled "Long-term follow-up of the randomized, prospective Scandinavian heart transplant everolimus de novo study with early calcineurin inhibitors avoidance (SCHEDULE) trial."

First author Entela Bollano, MD, PhD, and senior author Niklas Bergh, MD, PhD, both from the Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Sweden, join the podcast to discuss their work.

You'll hear about:

• Past outcomes of the SCHEDULE trial, including reduced CAV in patients on everolimus over patients on CNIs
• How this study filled the need for long-term follow up on randomized studies on immunosuppression
• Limitations of the study, and what additional follow up might teach us
