Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing the Tolerability and Efficacy of Maribavir vs. Valganciclovir for CMV Prophylaxis in High-Risk Kidney Transplant Recipients
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Maribavir and Valganciclovir for Transplant Complication and CMV. Completed, enrolled 70 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to find out if there is a difference in how well the standard MUSC cytomegalovirus (CMV) prevention medicine works, compared to a different medicine, in preventing CMV infections in kidney transplant recipients who are at risk for this type of infection, while also assessing the tolerability of these two regimens. The two medication regimens being compared are Valganciclovir (FDA approved to prevent and treat CMV infection) vs Maribavir (FDA approved to treat CMV infection) plus Acyclovir (FDA approved to prevent HSV infection).
