New strategy to shield transplant patients from dangerous virus rebound

NCT ID NCT06407232

Summary

This study is testing if a drug called letermovir can prevent cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection from coming back in high-risk kidney or kidney/pancreas transplant patients. It will enroll about 90 adult patients who have already been treated for a CMV infection. The goal is to see if switching to letermovir earlier than usual can better control the virus and help the patient's own immune system fight it.
