New hope for babies born with serious virus

NCT ID NCT06118515

Summary

This early-stage study aims to find a safe and effective dose of a new oral drug called letermovir for newborn infants with symptomatic congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV). The study will enroll 12 infants to see how their bodies process the drug and to check for any side effects. Infants will receive letermovir alongside the standard treatment, valganciclovir, for a short period to see if it helps better control the virus.
