First seen Apr 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 02, 2026 · Updated 11 times

Summary

This study tests if a medicine called letermovir can stop cytomegalovirus (CMV) in unborn babies better than the current treatment, valaciclovir. Pregnant women who had CMV in the first trimester and whose fetus is infected (confirmed by amniotic fluid test) can join. The goal is to see if letermovir leads to more babies born without the virus in their blood.
